In Star Wars fictional universe, the Aquatic Assault Stormtroopers (also known as seatroopers and aquatic troopers) were a special branch of the Imperial Stormtroopers. They were used by the Empire to maintain a presence on the aquatic worlds under its rule. Many of the machines used by the Empire were modified for aquatic use, including custom TIE boats and powerful AT-AT swimmers. The Aquatic trooper's armour was based on the light design of the scout trooper. It covers a two-piece enviromental body glove that gives protection from uncomfortable temperature extremes or toxic water emviroments. Their armour is more flexible than standard stormtrooper designs. The aquatic troopers regular weapon is a blaster rifle/speargun hybrid.
