General Information Body Paragraph:

Skytroopers were advanced battle droids utilized by the Eternal Empire in order to make up for their lack of population. The skytroopers were manufactured on Zakuul, and were armed with a blaster rifle, and rocket boosters for increased maneuverability.  

History/Background Body Paragraph:

The skytroopers were developed by the Eternal Empire, after merging the knowledge of mechanics that Sith Emperor Vitiate had, with that of the older Lokath species’ war machines. These battle droids were deployed all over the galaxy, subduing both Republic and Sith forces. As they were capable of being mass produced, these droids were often led by a member of the Knights of Zakuul, aiding in their efforts to take down enemies of the Empire.

Once the Eternal Empire fell, the droids were re-purposed for law enforcement, and to aid in reconstruction efforts. 

Additional Information Body Paragraph 

Skytroopers had a variant called the Heavy skytroopers, which were used for planetary assaults. Later on, the Galactic Empire would create Dark Troopers based off of these battle droids.
