Tuskcat Troopers were members of the Royal Naboo Security Forces who rode atop tusk cat beasts. Rather than employing blasters, they utilized flamethrowers, and their protective gear surpassed that of standard troopers in weight. Their mobility was also increased because of the tusk cat mounts. They proved to be highly successful when facing off against armored vehicles. Furthermore, they possessed the potential to advance, first becoming heavy Tuskcat troopers and subsequently evolving into advanced tuskcat troopers.
