Advanced Recon Commandos
Origin of ARC Troopers
Advanced Recon Commandos, also known as ARC Troopers, were an elite variant of clone troopers within the Grand Army of the Republic. The Original 12 Null ARCs, of which only 6 survived incubation, were the first clones created by the Kaminoan cloners, and prototypes for the GAR. They were deemed failures for there independence and lack of respect for hierarchy, and were slated for termination. Kal Skirata, a known Human Male Mandalorian, saved them, and trained them up to black ops commandos, teaching them Mandalorian heritage. They received special training for the essentials of warfare, and performed to the highest degree as the perfect weapons. From the development of these Nulls came 100 Alpha-class ARCs, who were trained personally by Fett. These second batch of ARCs were more obedient and reliable as they were instructed to follow the Jedi's Orders. The original ARC troopers led many successful missions at the beginning of the war, most notably, The Muunilinst 10, which were a elite group of Alpha-class ARCs and clone troopers, led by ARC Captain Alpha-77 Fordo.Though only 100 Alpha-class ARCs were produced, they were able to pass on the ARC tradition to new officers after the death of Jango Fett. The Alpha training program was designed to equip clone trooper commanders with similar training to that of the Alpha-class. They were trained to think more creatively, and to bring out their independence and tactical decisiveness. With ARC numbers dwindling, the GAR was forced to look for clone troopers to fit their role. Clone troopers that demonstrated exceptional ability and combat prowess were promoted to ARC Troopers, even though they were not genetically engineered, and lacked ARC training. Two key members of 501st, Fives and Echo, were awarded this status for there efforts to defend Kamino during the CIS invasion of Kaminos Capital, Tipoca City.

ARC Troopers are equipped with specialized weaponry tailored to excel in various combat scenarios:- Dual-DC17s (Close Quarters Combat): The Dual-DC17s serve as the primary weapons for close-quarters combat (CQC). Renowned for their high rate of fire and devastating damage per second, these dual blaster pistols are formidable tools in the hands of ARC Troopers.

- Westar M5 (Long-Range Combat): The Westar M5 is the go-to weapon for long-range engagements.
