It is "Covert." Some of the unboxing reviews on Operation Blackwind have some views of the book. 11:35 of this video has the unit fluff. It definitely seems like a S5 killbot that blows up (Explode) when it dies by the description.
From the leaked news it looks like a total murderbot in S2 size, so rather weird, but easy to hide in camo between other Haqq units. Still, we have to wait for confirmation. I'd be totally happy if he'd be S3 to give me bigger modeller options to show the hiding scorpio-bot in some dunes or between rocks ;) I wrote about it earlier in the Bokhtar topic: https://forum.corvusbelli.com/threads/bokhtar-speculations.41391/page-3#post-439312 It's definitely one of the most interesting things for me in this new Haqq's profiles and minis.

If it is in fact S2, it makes sense it would adopt a bipedal design, perhaps something akin to the Ikadron. If we extrapolate just a bit further we can arrive at perhaps the greatest possible conclusion of all time...please, please PLEASE CB bring back the Chickenbots!
Yup, it fits the fluff and it’s a diii…bot in a box. lol https://www.monstrousmakings.co.uk/product/defensive-turret/
Does anyone know the etymology of the unit name? I'll be honest, I'm literally just asking so I can make a meme.
@Urist put some effort in translating it. Came down to sunduq-but, literally "crate-bot". Therefore - meme away merrily :)
Infiltrating + Marker State + Move 0 (like an AI Beacon) + automated weapon system I would totally love it
Forward Deployment +8", Camo (1 use) w/ Surprise attack -3, MOV 4-4. Fluff-wise it is apparently derived form Karakuri technology (software & AI, the hardware is fully Haqq) purchased from a JSA company.
Where did you get this bit of info? And more important... Why did I get an error trying to reply to that!!!
Aaaach, effendi... I shall not be betraying my sources! ;) (it is floating on the net since a while. Not necessarily the final version, though - there are elements of the "new profiles" that turned out to be false already. So take it with a pinch of salt. Besides... today is the day when the offical profiles are to be revealed, IIRC. So in a few hourse we'll be sure)
In his lore this bot is comufled like common transport crater, so it can pass unnoticed. Hassa take that idea from RTF opperative who hide Al fassid in transport toilet (or something similar. It appears in Red Veil lore). I hope we can see its profile very soon. Cheers
I REALLY like the idea of the Sunduqbut because if Daylami go regular and we keep the infiltration panzerfaust option....we can combined order a Fuerbach and Panzerfausts with Suprise Attack -3...
Oh okay, I thought they were doing a full replace of Ghulam in N4...I will be happy if they remain similiar in N4 as they are now.
Expensive little bugger. Seems like a Karakuri and a Long Ya had a baby (but looks like twins until too late). Burst 4 viral rifle or AP spitfire in ARO is wild.
