Mahporeem is home to some of the largest and most impressive junkyards and scrapyards in the entire galaxy. Of particular note are the numerous Star Destroyers awaiting decommissioning on Mahporeem. Though the Imperial Remnant does have specialized equipment to deconstruct these vessels, they do sometimes require a more delicate touch. Thats where Salvage Troopers come in.
These troopers are directly responsible for managing salvaging operations of these massive Star Destroyers. Each trooper's armor is equipped with climbing spikes and a fibercord grappling hook, allowing them to scale Star Destroyers and similarly sized vehicles with ease. Their Vibro-Drills can tear apart armor plating in seconds, though they are most often used to create openings for explosives, allowing the Salvage Trooper to perform controlled detonations. The low light level googles of each Salvage Trooper allows them to continue their work day and night, ensuring that no Star Destroyer remains intact for long.
It was found that Salvage Troopers make surprisingly powerful melee combats, as they can entangle enemy units with their fibercord grappling hooks and then dispatch them with their Vibro-Drills. That being said, the armor remains highly specialized and relatively uncommon.
