Katarn armor

Katarn armor was a type of battle armor worn by clone commandos of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Kashyyyk campaign. It resembled Phase II clone trooper armor, and shared a similar name to the Katarn-class commando armor. It likewise shared its namesake, the predatory animal of Kashyyyk known as the katarn. Katarn armor included three variants, including patterns II, III IV and VII. Despite being a relic of the Clone Wars, Katarn armor saw some use during the time of the Galactic Civil War. The Galactic Empire, Alliance to Restore the Republic, and other non-aligned spacers made use of this armor. Around that time, a clone commando by the name of Mort gifted at least one of his suits of Katarn armor to an individual who enacted vengeance against one of his adversaries, a former commanding officer named Morkov.
