Imperial Army Special Missions trooper


Special Missions troopers of the Imperial Army constituted a lethal branch of special forces troopers, operating under the authority of the Special Forces Command. These operatives of the Galactic Empire were deployed for extremely dangerous clandestine operations, comprised of highly skilled individuals including sniper squads, infiltrators, saboteurs, commandos, assassins, and slicers. Functioning covertly and within enemy territory, they understood their expendable nature.
