- "Flame on!"
- ―Unknown clone blaze trooper[src]
The clone blaze trooper was the Grand Army of the Republic's frontline close combat infantry support unit and a variant of the jet trooper.
Heavily armored and jet-propelled, the blaze troopers were hulking figures in their armor, which appeared similar to that later worn by the Imperial spacetroopers.
They were tasked with 'blazing' through enemy lines and clearing accumulated battlefield debris out of the way of advancing infantry, using their wrist-embedded flamethrowers. It is known that they served on Rhen Var, Mygeeto, Utapau, and Coruscant during the Clone Wars.
