Designation: Light Assault Vehicle The hundreds of Scrin invasions tought them many lessons, one of them was that the light infantry of the invaded planets' defenders posed a serious threat to their harvesting forces. That's the reason why they created the Razorback, and proved extremely effective against infantry and light aircraft, and helped the Scrin lots of times to destroy light defensive armies.
Affiliation: Scrin
Role: Anti- infantry, Anti- aircraft
Armament: Dual Plasma Turret
Type: Light Vehicle
Speed: Medium
Background
The Razorback was one of the first Scrin units the human defenders encountered alongside the Seekers and the Stormriders, and since they were cought by surprise, their heavi equipment was not set against the Scrin, making the Razorbacks some of the most fearsome units alongside the Shock Troopers, although they weren't more powerful than Corruptors or Stalwarts. As the war continued and both GDI and Nod started using their full arsenal against the Scrin, including cyborgs and zone infantry, the Razorback became almost useless and a very vulnerable target. Consequently, the Overlord had to authorise the Tiberium Enhansements upgrade to become effective against advanced infantry and heavy aircraft armor and gain some extra armor to endure the heavy fire from the Zone Troopers' railguns. Even though that made them effective against heavy infantry, they still lacked effectiveness against anti- armor vehicles.
"Multiple Alien hover vehicles have been encountered till now, and the most basic seems to be a hover unit with a dual plasma gun, which, unlike Nod's plasma weapons, is fit to kill lightly armored units only. Infantry patrols should be aware of them when in Alien controlled territory, unlike our armored squadrons, which will have no problem dealing with them. End Transmition"

Tiberium is Key
The Tiberium Enhancements upgrade gives a considerable boost to the Razorback's hitpoints and attack power, but doesn't add any new powers or abillities, but still worths being researched, as with it any infantry unit should be afraid of it.

Good profile, and I never spotted that they are that powerful 0_0
By the last attack the Razorback was even a bit damaged, he still survived it. :)
nice vid (i think, can't watch because there is an error :P) but anyway good story to (like always :P) make next vid about wolverine or titan :D
No. We need to wait 1.5 to make their profiles. There will be a new version of then.
ohhh yeah >.< forget about that, sry guys i'm just an idiot :P
thank god they replaced that ugly walker thing with this unit. nice unit profile, i like it.
Well done unit profile. Tells exactly what it is and shows what it does and as bonus added tip to player. Good job ;).
Hmm.Wolwerine vs Razorback,or Raider Buggy vs Razorback.who would win?
Its shame Razorbacks are not air units.xd. Their model remind of The Indenpendent day film.And I love that film.) Infantry and Air units,do despair !
