'''Scorpion Missiles''' are a type of explosive ordnance used by the [[UNSC]]. These weapons are commonly mounted on the UNSC's [[SkyHawk]] jets and [[Longsword]] fighters for use in combat against the Covenant. They are equipped with motion tracking systems and proximity detonators, that greatly increase their chances of crippling or destroying a target. They are also able to attain high cruising speeds and are very accurate, thanks to their advanced guidance systems, which quickly locate and lock onto a target. Thanks to these state-of-the art features Scorpion missiles are capable of destroying even the most heavily armored of [[tank]]s and fighters. | |||

In [[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], Colonel [[James Ackerson]] dispatched a [[SkyHawk]] to attack [[SPARTAN-117]] and [[Cortana]] while the pair were on a testing run, in an effort to kill these threats to Ackerson's success. The SkyHawk launched a Scorpion Missile at the Spartan, but it failed to kill him, a result of John 117 literally swatting the rocket away with his energy shielded arm, a unique improvisation on the part of the Chief, made possible only by the aid of Cortana. | |||
