The mounted turret on the EDF Scout is completely unlike any other mounted turret in [[Saints Row 2]]. It fires a missile, similar to the Annihilator RPG's, but without the lock-on capabilities: It is only laser-guided. However, it fires a missile for every single pull of the trigger, 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 Saint's Row 2. However, if the player does not utilize due caution with the turret, they may end up destroying the Scout itself, especially if the missiles are fired at a close-range target.

Using the Mounted .50 cal is a quick way to get a high [[Notoriety]].
Humerously, obscenely powerful as the turret is, It was only ever designed for mining purposes, according to [[Tera Patrick]], whereas turrets designed for killing people, such as the ones employed on the [[Bear]] or [[Tornado]], are much weaker then the EDF Scout's.
 
 
Using the mounted turret cannon is one of, if not the quickest ways to get a high wanted level, as shooting 3 or 4 carefully aimed rockets will quickly net the player a low 2or high 4 star wanted level.

SR disambig icon This article is about {{{this article is about}}}. For {{{for}}}, see [[{{{see}}}]].

Overview

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 Playa 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 above the name when entering it..[2] 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.

Icon

The EDF Scout features a unique mounted Mounted .50 cal[3] which fires rockets instead of .50 cal rounds.

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 Mounted .50 cal 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.
  • Playa 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 Mounted .50 cal is, the EDF Scout was only ever designed for mining purposes,[4] whereas turrets designed for killing people, such as the ones employed on the Bear or Tornado, are much weaker then the EDF Scout's.
