*Unlike all other known Covenant vehicles, the Scarab, as well as its smaller counterpart, the [[Type-30 Light Excavation/Anti-Fortification Platform|Locust]], is named after an insect rather than a supernatural entity~~. However, the scarab beetle was regarded as sacred by the Egyptians, who used it as their symbol for immortality~~. Both scarabs and locusts are also poorly regarded for their razing of crops, so the UNSC likely named these vehicles in reference to these factors, as well as because of their insectoid resemblance.
