While all stormtrooper armor provides limited protection against hard vacuum, one elite division has been trained to operate exclusively in outer space. Zero-G Assault Stormtroopers are deadly commandos of the higher order, second only to the Imperial Royal Guard in training, loyalty, and destructive capability. When it is necessary to capture a freighter, space station, or other spacefaring vehicles, Zero-G troopers are deployed to handle the job

A Zero-G trooper platoon uses a well fitted and heavy armored assault shuttle to stage its operations from. A five-man command crew pilots the shuttle. All communication devices are patched through the platoon commander's station so that the commander can monitor the entire team's activities. He issues orders from on board the shuttle, directing his troopers from within the flying fortress.

The Assault Shuttle is a formidable attack vehicle in its own right, but the 40 Zero-G troopers it carries are walking arsenals. Each trooper wears a standard stormtrooper shell, but then plugs into a full body armor encasing that performs as a personal spacecraft and attack vehicle. Zero-G troopers are limited by the amount of power their armor can store, but they are trained to employ their armament effectively and complete their specific mission within a limited period of time. If unable to complete their mission within the time limit, the troopers have standing orders to return to their shuttle for recharging.
