Monitoring coastal territories[1] |
A "scud-rider" was a single pilot puddle jumper originally designed for monitoring coastal territories.[1]
Overview
Design details
Designed to monitor coastal territories, "scud-riders" were fitted with buoyant skids to take off and land on water. The riders were not able to leave atmosphere.[1]
Production history
According to Dorian Nguyen, Mr Garzon's scud-rider was likely almost as old as a Prowler they found that belonged to the Sundered Legion that was considered ancient history by 2548.[2]
History
Use on Meridian
Scud-riders were considered cheap "old piles of junk" by Dorian Nguyen, but he had a soft spot for them. One was used to check light signals near the docks at Brume-sur-Mer prior to the Covenant invasion of the planet.[1]
