Description
The Locust is a light gunship. Its high speed and decent damage makes it excellent for quickly taking out enemy economy or inaccurate units like assaults. However, it flies close to the ground and has a short range, meaning even other raiders can engage it on an equal footing. Like any raider, the Locust should avoid riots and static defense.
