Assault Aerotrooper

Assault Aerotroopers represent the best of the Aerotroopers in the Space Pirate military, appearing in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. They are equipped with Missile-deflecting armor and upgraded weaponry. However, Beam weapons can damage the armor. This is one of the most difficult Space Pirate units to face, due to its target-breaking dodge combined with armor that makes homing Missiles ineffective. It is equipped with a Twin Remote Attack Pod system rather than the bulky pack system seen on Aether. The pods make use of Particle Cannons and Gel Bomb Racks for their main attacks. The system allows for a greater maneuverability, and can break a target lock from Samus. If the armor is knocked off with Hypermode weaponry, they will become ordinary Aerotroopers.
