M808S Scorpion

This article is about the older variant of the M808 Scorpion tank. For other uses, see Scorpion (disambiguation).

Template:Vehicle Infobox The M808S Main Battle Tank, commonly known as the Scorpion, is a variant of the M808 Scorpion.

Specifications

The M808S Scorpion is armed with a high velocity cannon for engaging enemy vehicles and a medium machine gun for engaging enemy infantry. Scorpions in the field can be upgraded with submunition canister shells that deal heavy damage in a blast radius around their target.

Operational history

The UNSC Spirit of Fire carried a large complement of M808S Scorpions modified by Serina before 2537. Her improvements include a more efficient armor arrangement, better situational awareness for the operator, and upgrades to the main cannon. Isabel found little room for improvement on this blueprint, but saw possibilities for specialized variants that leverage the chassis for other roles. Scorpions were used by UNSC forces attached to the UNSC Spirit of Fire against Banished forces for control of Installation 00 in May 2559.
