The Scout comes built in squads of 3, and are effective recon and intelligence units. They have the fastest speed of the armed craft for the Hiigaran fleet however their weapons are light in nature, meaning the damage output is negligible. These ships can be used as an effective harassment units if handled correctly, speeding away from any targets that give chase while doubling back to fire some pot shots at those that give up. They can also be upgraded with an EMP weapon that when used in sufficient numbers, is capable of disabling almost any enemy ship. This effect only lasts for a short period of time, but can be used to devastating effect when combined with a squad of Marine Frigates.
