Confederate ARCs.
Confederate Advanced Recon Commandos, also known as Advanced Recon Commandos clone troopers or simply ARC troopers were an elite variant of clone troopers in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. Although less numerous than the other clones, they were among the most skilled soldiers in the galaxy.
After the war, those who survived were hired by the Galactic Confederate Systems to assist confederate soldiers during the War of Secession.

ARC ranks[]
- ARC commander: Although some ARC trooper captains were promoted to the rank of commander and wore yellow ARC trooper armor, most of the officers that were labeled an "ARC Commander" were not originally Alpha-class ARC troopers. These ARC commanders were regular clone officer commanders that were specially trained by Alpha-17 to instill more independence, aggressiveness, and to think outside the box.
- ARC captain: These ARCs were higher in rank than ARC lieutenants. They wore red-striped ARC trooper armor and also led ARC lieutenants into battles.
- ARC lieutenant: These were the first and most common ARCs during the Clone Wars and War of Secession. They fought in various battles including the Battle of Muunilinst and Operation Detachment and wore blue-striped armor.
- ARC sergeant: ARC Sergeants wore green-striped armor.
Subdivisions[]
