Numbering only thirty four, Delta-class Advanced Commandos, or DAC troopers, are an elite branch of the Dlarit Special Operations Group. DACs are among the best equipped and highest trained soldiers in the Dlarit Corporation. The DAC program has since been abandoned in favor of training larger numbers of less advanced Dlarit Commandos and regular DSOG troopers in order to recover the men lost at the Battle of Antei in 27 ABY.

History

DACs often wear customised armor with accessories such as a kama

The DAC trooper project began in early 27 ABY after the Dlarit Corporation recovered a number of Spaarti cloning cylinders from a rogue Kaminoan scientist. With Spaarti cylinders in hand, the corporation had them secretly installed in the lower levels of the Cenota Facility on Gamuslag. The prime clone was selected from among the ranks of the Dlarit Security Force and an initial batch of thirty four DAC troopers was begun for completion in 28 ABY.

The DAC project was to prove somewhat short lived when the Dlarit Security Force was decimated in the middle of 27 ABY after the Battle of Antei. In order to replenish the ranks and provide crew for the warships scheduled for completion in 28 ABY the DAC project was abandoned and the remaining Spaarti cylinders assigned to begin work on a new line of ordinary field soldiers.

As a consequence of the Battle of Antei the DAC project was effectively abandoned with only a small number of DAC troopers ever completed. The project may be continued again in the future but one can expect DAC troopers to remain in small numbers due to the small number of Spaarti cylinders in the corporation's possession. Even with all the cylinders now assigned to producing lower quality troopers, only a few hundred are being produced in each batch, meaning it will likely be years before the project can be fully resumed.

Limited Production

As with all cloning: quality cannot be hurried. Whilst Spaarti technology is not as successful as Kaminoan or as fast as Arkanian methods, it is capable of satisfactory production times with the average clone taking only a year to grow as opposed to ten using Kaminoan methods or six months using Arkanian.

The original batch of DAC troopers were completed on schedule in early 28 ABY and have performed significantly better in combat than ordinary DSOG clone troopers thanks to having been allowed the recommended full year of growing time. Due to the events at the Battle of Antei, it is unclear how many more DAC troopers will be grown due to the comparatively lengthy production time required to create clones of DAC trooper quality compared with regular DSOG troopers.

While the DAC troopers all came from the same original prime clone they are not entirely identical. Each exhibits a number of individual traits, having been allowed to maintain a degree of independence compared to the regular DSOG troopers. The method of cloning employed also causes the clones to exhibit various phenotypes, leading to a certain amount of inherent variation between them such as hair and eye color.
