Template:Infobox vehicles The EDF Scout is a vehicle in Saints Row 2: Ultor Exposed.

The Red Faction Wiki also has an article about the EDF Scout.

Description

The EDF Scout is a mining assault vehicle that was created by the Ultor Corporation and was Eric Gryphon's "pet project". It is used against The Protagonist and Tera when they try to steal an Ultor chemical truck.[1]

The EDF Scout's armor isn't as good as the Bear's, although it can take several hits before catching fire. It has an orange Red Faction logo painted on the back window, and has the game's logo seen above its name when entering it. It bears a resemblance to the The General's unique Bulldog. In a way, the Bear is more agile as the EDF Scout has a wide turning circle and poor tire grip.

Rocket Turret

Template:Reqimage Template:Infobox weapon The EDF Scout features a unique mounted Rocket Turret which is completely unlike any other mounted turret in Saints Row 2.

It fires missiles, similar to the Annihilator RPG, but without the lock-on capability: they are laser-guided only. It fires one missile for each trigger pull, and with no effective fire cap, a deadly, constant barrage of rockets can be spewed forth by jamming the trigger as hard as possible. This makes it, quite possibly, the most deadly turret mounted on any vehicle in Saints Row 2. It is easy to destroy the Scout and be Smoked.

Using the Rocket Turret is a quick way to get a high Notoriety.

Trivia

  • Volition imported the EDF Scout from their game Red Faction: Guerrilla.
  • The vehicle is classified as a Ultor vehicle, while in Red Faction is classified as Earth Defense Force (EDF) vehicle. Possibly Ultor built these vehicles and later owned by EDF.
  • The Protagonist asks Tera where Ultor was planning to mine, to which Tera replies "you wouldn't believe me if I told you", referring to the fact that the EDF Scout is used to mine on Mars in Red Faction.[1]
  • The Red Faction model features smaller windows than the Saints Row 2. Also, it is more versatile.
  • As powerful as the Rocket Turret is, the EDF Scout was only ever designed for mining purposes,[2] whereas turrets designed for killing people, such as the ones employed on the Bear or Tornado, are much weaker then the EDF Scout's.
  • The weapon selection wheel lists the Rocket Turret as a Mounted .50 cal.
