Interdictors are a type of protossinterceptor available to the Purifiers. They specialize in taking out ground targets.
Game Unit[]
Interdictors are available to Fenix in Co-op Missions, and are only buildable in carriers under the control of Clolarion. They unleash bombs on ground targets, doing area-of-effect damage to the target and everything around it. They are unselectable, and only two can be built per Clolarion-occupied carrier.
Each A.I. Champion's special ability gains strength for every unit of the same type that Fenix controls, scaling based on the unit's supply (up to a maximum bonus of 20 supply).
Builds Interdictors that automatically bomb enemy ground units for 12 (+X) damage. Can be set to autocast.
Can attack ground units.
Tactical Data Web: Interdictor damage is increased by 3 for each networked Carrier (up to 10 damage, summary 22).
Network Administrator: Increases the Interdictor damage per each networked Carrier from 3 to 9 (up from 10 damage to 30 damage, summary from 22 to 42).

Notes
Clolarion start with 0 Interdictors (maximum 2). Launch 1 Interdictor every 0.25 seconds.
The ability for interceptors to bomb ground targets was at one point a faction specialization in Legacy of the Void, but was cancelled. The ability still remains in the Galaxy Map Editor.
