A Clone trooper Arc-170 pilot, Commander Odd Ball, at the Battle of Coruscant.

When the ranks of the Army of the Republic were revamped with new armor midway through The Clone Wars, the clone pilots also were revamped, wearing a blue jumpsuit reminiscent of later pilot flightsuits with one of two helmets; either an enclosed pilot helmet very similar in design to the standard clone helmets, but with black markings, or a helmet that had the face exposed. The latter helmet is a cross between the helmets of pilots of the Rebel Alliance and Imperial Stormtrooper pilots of the Galactic Empire, as seen in the original Star Wars trilogy. Many of these newly clad pilots were then reassigned to the recently unveiled Venator-class Star Destroyers and ARC-170 starfighters.

Specialized pilots are battlefield engineers, constructing and repairing turrets and vehicles, supply troops with supplies and plant timed explosives (Battlefront series.)

Trivia

The Clone Pilot's helmet was one of the last things to be designed for Attack of the Clones. It was a cross between the Imperial Pilot's helmet and the standard Clone Trooper helmet. The Clone Pilot's suit in Revenge of the Sith is based more closely to the Imperial Pilot's suit.
