- "So, we did the ARC troopers [with] the idea that the ARC troopers are wearing experimental armor on Kamino. They are wearing this hybrid helmet that's part Episode II...and part Episode III."
- ―Dave Filoni discussing new clone armor
Advanced Recon Commando armor, or ARC trooper armor, was a type of clone trooper armor worn by Advanced Recon Commando troopers during the Clone Wars.
Overview
Phase I
Phase I clone trooper armor was the first phase of armor used by clone troopers, but Phase I ARC trooper armor was a type of Phase I armor customized to the needs of ARC troopers. It included kamas, pauldrons, rangefinders, and pouches to carry weapons for their uses. Additional attachments included jetpacks, rocket launchers, mini flamethrowers, and other weapons. Fordo, an ARC trooper captain, also had a taser on him.
Phase II
- "We've seen the classic Episode II clones for...three season really, and it's time to start producing the idea that they are going to change their helmets at some point, like they have in Revenge of the Sith."
- ―Dave Filoni discussing the change to Phase II
Phase II clone trooper armor was the second phase of clone trooper armor that included Phase II ARC trooper armor. The Phase II ARC trooper armor was similar to the Phase I, but Phase II had a shorter antenna crest, extra chest plates on the pauldron, and it had usually had a life support pack on the back. The experimental Phase II ARC trooper armor had the same helmet as the Phase I clone troopers, but it was changed to Phase II soon after.
