Though the M808 continued to serve in UNSC Army and Marine Corps armored units after 2557, the M820 Scorpion began to replace older models after its introduction.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} By October 2558, the M820 had replaced its predecessor in [[War Games]] simulations aboard {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} among its Spartan forces.{{Ref/Game|H5G|Scorpion in-game vehicles}} | Following the loss of [[Chalybs Defense Solutions]]' facilities on [[Meridian]] in [[2551]], [[Acheron Security]] assumed production of the [[M808 Scorpion]].

Chalybs also offers a civilian variant of the Scorpion for private military contractors, the Corp Scorpion, which features superior armor to the baseline Smodel. The UNSC contracted [[Hannibal Weapon Systems]] to provide an up-armored variant of the Scorpion featuring a [[directed energy weapon]] based on the [[M6 Spartan Laser]] in place of the M990 turret, and replacing the pintle-mounted machine gun with a Gauss cannon similar to that mounted to Hannibal's up-armored [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark IX Mantis|Mantis]]. | ||
