Arpitrooper

Sometimes called 'RP' Trooper, arpitroopers were the designation for ground based infantry forces that were deployed into battlefields through the use of repulsor packs, in effect becoming a form of paratroopers. These soldiers were used during the Clone Wars and were common among local planetary militias, like the Balawai militia.
