Clone X trooper

Clone X troopers, also known as CX troopers, Clone X series, clone assassins, or Shadows by Rex, were specialized clone commandos conditioned by the Advanced Science Division of the Imperial Science Bureau of the Galactic Empire. Conditioned to be fanatically loyal to the Empire, during the process, their identities were erased and were monitored with enhanced tracking to ensure they completed their missions without fail. Acting as specialized assassins active under a deep undercover program of the Advanced Science Division, they wore unique armor and were equipped with a variety of weapons. In the event of possibly being captured, they were provided with a electro capsule.

Vice Admiral Edmon Rampart was given Clone X to silence clone troopers who knew of his involvement in the Attack on Kamino and planned to expose him to the Imperial Senate. Months later, the Empire sent CX-1 to eliminate Senator Avi Singh, and, when CX-1 was captured by the Clone Underground movement, sent CX-2 to silence CX-1 on Teth.
