Elite stormtrooper


The elite stormtroopers of the First Order, an advanced form of the typical stormtrooper, served within their special forces. These soldiers carried SE-44C blaster pistols and rode elite speeder bikes designed for dangerous operations. Their stormtrooper armor was black and included two red stripes on the left chest, a color scheme shared with their speeder bikes.

Behind the scenes

The debut of elite stormtroopers alongside their speeder bikes was in a toy set for Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, part of the movie's marketing campaign. Despite this, neither the stormtroopers nor their bikes were shown in the film. They have not been seen in other Star Wars media or promotional materials since, and they still lack an official designation.
