The Skorpion was one of the very first mass-produced ‘Anti-Gravity’ AFVs produced within the Technosphere, however, technically it does not really use Anti-Gravity but rather the lower-tech’ ‘R-grav’: the heavy “skids” which typify this sort of vehicle being one of it prominent features.

The tank has a number of disadvantages and problems associated with it yet it has proven to be exceptionally popular in a multitude of roles and has typically replaced wheeled scout-vehicle in many Habitats, particularly where medium or heavy armoured vehicles are not present, or only in low numbers and it can offer itself as a good all-round AFV at a very reasonable price.
