The Scarab 1 is a crude ship designed to take a beating, and be expendable. This ship belongs to GMI, as they build a brand new fleet in their home away from Kerban (Which at the time of writing this, is unknown). The Scarab 1 is designed to look menacing and bizarre, so that it sparks fear in the eyes of the meek HKA. This ship has a very high Delta V, while maintaining an agile thrust to weight ration. The long range of this vessel allows it to transfer between planets efficiently, this permits it to strike far and fast if the need arises. Once the HKA retook the KSC, GMI needed an answer to the ships that destroyed their own during the battle in orbit over the KSC. This versatile and unique craft will turn the tides in the fight between the two titans of interstellar business.

The curved front end of the ship is emulating the Egyptian Scarab Beetle, a symbol which was prolific in ancient Egyptian cultures. The scarab represented the Sun God Ra, it was believed that Ra renewed the sun each day, pulling it across the sky with his chariot. The beetle came to symbolize rebirth and renewal, just as GMI is starting anew.
