Description:
FS1 Tech Room Description
The Scarab is very similar to our Centaur: We believe the Vasudans stole the design of this ship from us. It is used for in flight rearming of fighters and bombers. In longer engagements, these ships can mean the difference between victory and defeat. The major difference between this ship and the Centaur is that the Scarab is unmanned.

Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.
All support ships in both games are pretty much the same, they're pretty much sitting ducks so don't expect these things to make it through a firefight, and if they should explode, make it far away from you.
The debris has the texture of a dead Vasudan on it, despite it being unmanned... Anyway, the only difference between this and the Centaur is that it has the stop speed of only 70 m/s, while at the top setting, the Centaur has 100 m/s.
An interesting thing to take notice of is that despite it being unmanned, its debris includes a picture of a dead Vasudan.
