Background: A type of armor was used by TK troopers early in the Imperial Era. The armor was an updated successor to Phase II clone trooper armor used by the Galactic Republic’s clone troopers. While the remaining clone stormtroopers continued wearing their Phase II armor separately from the TK stormtroopers, the Empire eventually finalized the armor of the Stormtrooper Corps, creating stormtrooper armor.
Like clone trooper armor, TK trooper armor was comprised of white plastoid armor plates worn over a black body glove. Its most contrasting feature was the helmet, which contained a single visor, but no longer in the T-shape formation of clone trooper helmets. It also contained a raised ridge that ran from directly above the visor to the back of the helmet.
