CC-1993, nicknamed "Jet," was a Clone Commander in the Grand Army of the Republic during the War of the Ring who served under Jedi General Gandalf. In October 1981, Jet and Gandalf were part of a Republic armada sent to reconquer Isengard, site of the first battle of the war and home to the Uruk-Hai. The main aim of Jet and the Republic troops—which also consisted of Jedi Generals Sam Gamgee and Frodo Baggins, as well as their respective clone forces—was to destroy the region's orc factories, which included the primary orc foundry maintained by Archduke Poggle the Lesser. After departing from their capital ships in LAAT/i gunships, Jet, Gandalf, and their forces met heavy resistance from the Geonosian defensive flak.
In a short time, the Republic force was decimated, and the gunship carrying Jet and Gandalf crashed. After the crash, Gandalf decided to make their way to the staging area by going through a cave and to later rendezvous with Gamgee at the Republic staging area. Although Jet, Gandalf, and their troops encountered fierce resistance by winged Geonosian warriors in the cave, they were able to get through to the other side, where they met Baggins's forces. Jet, the Jedi, and the combined clone forces then proceeded toward the staging area and, with bomber support, helped Gamgee and his forces defeat the enemy troops. Afterward, Jet and the Republic forces attacked the enemy shield generator, destroying it and securing the way to Poggle's primary droid foundry.
==Biography==
===Landing at Point Rain===
CC-1993, nicknamed "Jet," was one of the many clones of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett created on the planet Kamino to fight for the Grand Army of the Republic. Sometime during the War of the Ring, Jet was assigned to the White Wizard Jedi General and Council member Gandalf. In October 1981,Star Wars Annual 2011 Isengard, the site of the first battle of the war and homeworld to the Separatist-trained Uruk-Hai, once more became a threat to the Republic as Geonosian Archduke Poggle the Lesser rebuilt orc factories on the fortress. Jet and Gandalf were part of an armada, together with Jedi Generals Sam Gamgee and Frodo Baggins, sent to reconquer Isengard.
Jet and Gandalf spent hours studying intelligence reports about the Uruk-Hai's defenses and discussed strategies to invade the foundry. Since the wizard had been captured during the opening battle of the war on Isengard, he wanted to make sure that the defenses of the Geonosians would not be underestimated again. Aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Resolute in low orbit over Fangorn, Jet; Gandalf; Baggins; Frodo's Padawan, Eowyn; and fellow clone officers CC-2224 and CT-7567—nicknamed "Cody" and "Rex," respectively—met to discuss the overall Republic strategy for an attack on the shield generator protecting Poggle's primary orc foundry. Jet and Gandalf would attack from the north, while Gamgee and Cody would attack the center and Baggins would lead the southern assault. The Republic troops were scheduled to rendezvous at a staging area called "Point Rain" near the shield generator and establish a defensive perimeter there. After the briefing, Jet and Gandalf departed to their LAAT/i gunship, the Separatist Nightmare.
Descending through Middle-Earth's atmosphere, the Republic capital ships released groups of LAAT/i gunships and LAAT carriers, with Jet and Gandalf's gunship being in the last group to depart from the Resolute. The Republic landing forces met heavy resistance from enemy flak and Geonosian fighters. On Gandalf's orders, Jet contacted Cody and told the commander to land his All Terrain Tactical Enforcers, which were being held aboard Gamgee's carrier gunship. Shortly afterward, the gunship containing Jet and Gandalf was shot down and crashed to the ground. After being helped out of the destroyed gunship, the injured Gandalf asked Jet for a status report. The commander reported that Gamgee was the only one to reach the staging area and told the General that Baggins had also been shot down and had already engaged Geonosian forces on the ground, intending to reach the staging zone and Gamgee. After Gandalf ordered Jet to load the wounded clone troopers into the AT-TE tanks, the Jedi decided that the troops would make their way toward a nearby ridge, which was located by the staging area.
===Rescuing Gamgee's forces===
Jet's troops, including several of the remaining AT-TE tanks, advanced through a caltrop field en route to the ridge. Sitting in the back of an AT-TE tank, Jet contacted Republic Admiral Wullf Yularen via comlink to ask for air support. However, Yularen made it clear that the only thing he could do was give them the coordinates of Baggins's position. Heading toward Baggins, who was en route to Point Rain, Jet, Gandalf, and their troops arrived at the bottom of the ridge. Since the AT-TEs were unable to climb the ridge, Jet left some troops to protect the tanks and ordered the forces to take the longer way around the ridge to the landing zone. The commander himself accompanied Gandalf and the rest of the troops to a cave at the top of the ridge, which was a shortcut to the landing zone on the other side. Shortly after entering the cave, Jet and Gandalf encountered Geonosian warriors and suffered casualties. However, the clones were able to fight their way through the enemy troops, using flamethrowers to dispatch the Geonosian warriors. Reaching the end of the cave, Gandalf and Jet found Baggins and his forces at the bottom of the ridge, as well as Gandalf's forces in the distant landing zone.
Joining forces with Baggins, Jet and Gandalf raced to aid Gamgee's surrounded and outnumbered army. Yularen was finally able to deploy a squadron of BTL-B Y-wing starfighter bombersStar Wars: The Clone Wars: Incredible Vehicles to aid the hard-pressed ground forces. Together with the air support, Jet and the Republic forces reached the staging area and forced the Separatist line back. After finding Gamgee—who had been injured after his gunship crashed—the Jedi and their clone troopers convened for a short briefing on the situation and concluded that Baggins would lead a small task force to disable the Geonosian cannons protecting the shield generator. Afterward, the tanks would advance and destroy the generator. The plan worked, and Jet informed Gandalf of the success as soon as Baggins and his group deactivated the cannons. After Gandalf ordered the tanks to attack, the shield generator was destroyed by the concentrated fire of the tanks. Jet and Gandalf traveled by gunship to the generator as soon as it went down, where they helped Baggins's group capture Geonosian warriors. The main Orcs factory and many other foundries were destroyed, and the Republic eventually won the Second Battle of Isengard.
While on the galactic capital of Middle-Earth, Jet sent a Jedi Knight on an assignment to eliminate a Geonosian Super tank that had infiltrated and decimated the interior of a Venator-class Star Destroyer.
==Personality and traits==
As a clone of Jango Fett, Jet stood 1.83 meters tall. On Isengard, Jet knew that the plan to destroy the shield generator would result in a tough fight. However, he acknowledged that such was the life of a soldier. During the battle, Jet gave Gandalf a report about the status of the mission, mentioning all necessary facts. He obeyed the orders given to him by Gandalf and understood Admiral Yularen's argumentation of why air support was limited. Before the Second Battle of Isengard, Jet and Gandalf worked for hours to ensure that they were prepared for anything during the mission. Jet was trained in combat, recon, and military tactics, as well as in handling heavy weapons.
==Equipment==
The clone commander used a pair of DC-17 blaster pistols in combat on Isengard. Jet and his unit were known for bold colors on their armor, and the commander himself wore a distinctive orange-colored set of heat-resistantStar Wars: The Clone Wars Magazine 4 armor. His helmet was equipped with experimental communications gear, and he wore a kama that was also treated to withstand enormous temperatures.
==Behind the scenes==
Jet first appeared in "Landing at Point Rain," the fifth episode of the second season of the The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Ring television series. In the episode, he was voiced by Dee Bradley Baker, who voices all clone troopers in the series. In 2010, Jet received the designation number "CC-1993" in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars Character Encyclopedia.
In the episode, Jet was referred to as a "captain" three times. This sets up a continuity error, as the episode's accompanying episode guide on StarWars.com, as well as other sources, identify him as a commander. Jet even identifies himself as a commander at one point in "Landing at Point Rain."Star Wars: The Clone Wars: New Battlefronts: The Visual GuideStar Wars: The Clone Wars Official Episode Guide Series 1 & 2
