The Scout Company is a company strength unit with mobile command and support elements that are much smaller than other company types along with less support equipment due to their lean and flexible operation. The company is comprised of 86 soldiers equipped with blaster rifles and 40 scout soldiers equipped with blaster sniper rifles and smoke grenades. The scout soldiers are trained sharpshooters with specialized sniper skills and long range accuracy and have received specialized training to be independent and adaptable, with reconnaissance and infiltration skills along with the ability to service and repair their own equipment and perform basic medical tasks. This company can be augmented by two squadrons of twenty pieces of Scout Transport equipment.
