The M808 has proven itself to be the workhorse of UNSC armored attack vehicles. The tank's [[M512 smooth-bore high-velocity cannon|90mm cannon]] can deliver a devastating blow to all targets—infantry or armor. The M808's thick ceramic-[[titanium]] armor can withstand a direct hit from a [[Covenant]] [[fuel rod cannon]] and survive with enough armor to keep fighting. The Scorpion's two-man crew severely limits [[human]] casualties; along with its main offensive capabilities, one other man can man the tank's turret as a gunner, and four infantrymen can sit on the tread pods of the tank, providing supporting fire while using the tank as a transport.{{Ref/Reuse|ENC}} | The M808 has proven itself to be the workhorse of UNSC armored attack vehicles.

The M808 Scorpion is the [[UNSC]]'s lead armored vehicle, having served for over three centuries. Its four-track nacelles design, with each track mounted on an independent computer-controlled suspension system, allows the M808 Scorpion to traverse, climb over, or maneuver around large debris or other battlefield obstacles, and prevents the vehicle from being easily disabled.{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} The Scorpion is not the most powerful or quickest UNSC main battle tank, but it is often considered to be the best marriage between those two qualities.{{Ref/Game|Id=Library|HCEA|Library (feature)|Library|Detail=Scorpion}} | The M808 Scorpion is the [[UNSC]]'s lead armored vehicle, having served for over three centuries.
