Name subject to change

1 turn unit that can see stealth. 3 speed, very low health, good sight. Only buildable in the larva hangar (the airfield like one). Flying unit (not air). Basically just a bug with a scanner attached to it.

More like a lady bug or a red fetus with wings.

The f is red fetus? XD

Fly is better, there r all kinds of flies in insect family, even butterfly has fly in its name

I think other insect names should b used for better uniys, and since this is a stealth scout unit, a small fly with scanner is better, if u think its bad just cause of the stereotypical idea of flies, then y should ants b considered big soldiers instead of tiny critters?

This is the world of insectoids and not us humans, so dont judge them with human eyes

May b as a 1 turn unit, it can look smaller, have stealth but scanning lasers should stay same

Like the aos scout bird

You talk about a world of insectoids, but it'd rather look at it as humans naming the insectoid units thru allegories to what they know. If we took the insectoid perspective, everything should be called something incomprehensible.

We could call it a "scanner bug" and avoid discussing what exactly it actually looks like. Yea, I should have proposed that to begin with.
