Paratroopers' main task in the battle is to successfully land on a objective, capture it and defend it. They are very efficient if used properly during the game. They can also be used to drop behind enemy lines and harass the enemy and/or delay the enemy's advance. A Paratrooper can be bought with gold or credits after reaching Player Level 5.

​

Paratroopers spawn on a Transport Plane and parachute onto the objective when the plane passes over the desired objective. Once landed, Paratroopers are not too different from Infantry; the main difference aside from parachuting being that Paratroopers have 6 equipment slots compared to Infantry's 10. 

​

Paratroopers are incredibly useful because they don't have to make an effort to run past enemies to get to the next objective, they can merely drop in. That being said, that does not mean that a smart opponent won't be watching for some parachutes at which to shoot. Without the Freefall combat badge, Paratroopers automatically open their parachutes approximately 50 meters from the ground giving the enemy a good chance to shoot Paratroopers. With the Free Fall combat badge, Paratroopers can open their parachute at any given time, meaning that opening the parachute 1 meter before the ground and avoiding enemy fire is certainly an option. Most Paratroopers use the Free Fall combat badge and swear by it.
