Scout Troopers, also known as Biker Scouts, are specialized stormtroopers in the Star Wars universe, first appearing in 'Return of the Jedi.' They are members of the Galactic Empire, trained for reconnaissance, infiltration, and rapid-response missions. Distinguished by their lightweight armor and agility, Scout Troopers often operate speeder bikes for patrol and pursuit. Their primary role is to gather intelligence and provide support in forested or challenging terrains, making them critical to the Empire's ground operations.
