@@chengzhou8711 youtube " Generation Tech " covers storm troops with a Pro Imperial view. Great challenge. Other than the " Bad writing," all all the Behind the Scenes reasons with filming bugets. I had been reading Star Wars novel since I was a teenager in the early 1990's. In one novel Chewie really toss a storm trooper good over a railing and the writer wrote that guy's whole trip rolling down the step hill side to the bottom. During the Rebels escape they ended running pass where the storm trooper landed. As the trooper came to after being knock out, he rose covered like a compost pile with small tree branches sticking to him. Chewie was so startled he drop hes riffle and ran off ! Han yells at Chewie for being a coward and before he goes to shot the trooper. The guy drops to his knees and pukes in his helmet. So Han lets him live. As a 13 year old into Larp & Hema, with MMA. We made a lot of card board, duck tap body armor. A muddy corn field with a leafy hill side can turn anyone into an unrecognizable mess. We even painted the armor White and see who can cover it up the fastest in mud, dirt, and leaf. And " playing " army in the woods/ forests around farmland, more than a few times had to deal with slipping and sliding on lose ground cover, falling hard on my hip. In movies they never mention tripping on animal crap. And some of the stains do not wash out. Side note: In comics and movies you never see the lead characters with a helmet on. Cause the director / artist wants the viewers to see the lead hero.

Transmissions from the 439th Legion, on Training Maneuvers on Byss: "This leads me to the performance of the newly-arrived light infantry, the scout troopers. While certainly well-equipped and just as effective as reports suggested, the scout trooper platoon has encountered resistance when fitting in with the rest of the Legion. The friction is almost entirely on the side of the scouts, who seem to have made a sport of being as difficult and as offensive as possible to anyone of equal or lesser rank. The sound of the speeder-bikes is frequently heard tearing through the barracks at all hours of the night, I believe with the express purpose of disrupting the other troopers' sleep. While the scouts show extreme camaraderie with each other, they frequently refuse to acknowledge the other enlisted men. By and large, the entire platoon seems to be composed of egotistical, unpleasant braggarts. My suggestion would be to keep them separate from the general armed forces, or it will only be a matter of time before the other men tear them limb from limb."

Let's be real here George Lucas was far from your career soldier who would know things like proper camouflage. Or white in general is a bad color. Now that's not meant to say he should've been. If you want stories with some hardcore well thought out military force it's called military scifi or you could read memoirs from actual wars if you really want realism. I who does infact read both strongly encourage you do. But Lucas wasn't writing military sci-fi he was going for a space opera so most likely he didn't go that far into imperial military lore as to have a reason to not use camouflage. So there probably isn't an in universe reason which is why we have fan theories. Because logically speaking I could go as far to argue that even clones are tactically dumb for using vibrant colors on their already bright white armor and making their commanding officers to distinct from normal soldiers, making it easy for a sniper to pick them off. Which quite honestly takes the fun out of it so let's not go done that road.

This is a case of ideology trumping practicality. The Empire was built upon the idea of ruling through fear, which was best emphasized through their distinctive, intimidating designs. Stormtroopers were trained to be fanatics who would run headlong into enemy fire without hesitation, wouldn't slow down to aid their fallen comrades, and who would show no mercy to the enemy. They were living terror weapons. To that end, the Empire wanted them to be highly visible to better demonstrate these qualities. The problem, as the war went on, was that their enemies became less afraid and more focused in fighting them. This could be connected to the destruction of the first Death Star, which badly undermined the Empire's image of being unstoppable.

Buuut they have more exposed soft body armor.. meaning melee and physical weapons will be way more effective against them plus then they don't get the energy dispersion effect of the full standard kit. Plus a better helmet will cost more so... If you're making a massive army cheaper semi effective gear for your troops with will be better In the long run.

Stormtrooper helmets are outfitted with a wide array of sensor tech and additions to improve vision of the wearer along with a functional HUD. Though the eye lenses my be small the helmet can outweigh this and due to smaller weak points offers a better protection overall. And Star Wars Helmets in general have small or thin lenses. Mandalorian or Clone helmets are no exception
Generation Kill is a good depiction of how Scout Troopers would act.

Yeah Every Scout trooper is gangsta, until wood will start speak Droopers.
Can only imagine a Scout Trooper being an a-hole if he where stuck on a planet with two suns and no women. (Family Guy reference)
I like how their helmets just make it look like they have a smug looking face
Would be nice to see Scout troopers in the Mandalorian or other series/film with sniper gear
Something about scout troopers how wounderful just what we needed.
I like how the empire kept their armor almost identical to republic scout armor
