The Imperial Thermal Detonator Trooper, also known as a Grenade Trooper, was an artillery unit used by the Galactic Empire. The trooper used a mortar-like device to lob thermal detonators into the desired attack area. These units were very effective against shielded and mechanized units, but ineffective against buildings and non-mechs. They wore black uniforms with a helmet.

Grenade Troopers were deployed on battlefields during the Galactic Civil War.

Darth Vader ordered the recruitment of additional troopers from troop centers during the war to use in battle against the Rebel Alliance.
