The Scarab is not a practical application for battle, except in battles that involve tight spaces such as cities. Rather, the Covenant uses the Scarab to melt away miles of rock, no doubt to search for structures and artifacts of the Forerunners. | The Scarab is not a practical application for battle, except in battles that involve tight spaces such as cities.

While previously thought of as a mere mining digger, the Scarab's purpose as an assault vehicle has been expanded hugely; at least two Scarabs are seen used by the military in [[Halo 2]], while they also appear in the [[Halo Graphic Novel]], the book Halo: Ghosts of Onyx, and will be in [[Halo Wars]]. They appear to be major forward assault platforms, causing mass destruction and chaos in preparation for more ground troops to fight. | While previously thought of as a mere mining digger, the Scarab's purpose as an assault vehicle has been expanded hugely; at least two Scarabs are seen used by the military in [[Halo 2]], while they also appear in the [[Halo Graphic Novel]], the book [[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], and will be in [[Halo Wars]].
