Template:SC1UnitBox The T-280 space construction vehicle (or SCV) is a type of terran general-purpose engineering vehicle.
Overview
The SCV is used to construct and maintain everything from remote outposts to space platforms as well as harvest resources. They are used by both military and civilian interests throughout the Koprulu Sector for their versatility and reliability.[1]
The T-280 SCV became prominent for its performance during the construction of Tarsonis' space platforms. It was widely adopted and became a staple in terran engineering by the late 2490's.[1] The T-280 stands just over three meters tall.[2] It is equipped with fusion cutters[1] and plasma welders.[2]
In the Terran Confederacy era, volunteering to pilot an SCV appeared to be an alternative to military service.[3] The PEB (Preferred Experience Base) was hostile environment engineering, with combat experience a plus.[4]
Game Unit
StarCraft
The SCV is the terran worker unit. SCVs count as a biological and mechanical unit; they can be healed by medics and other SCVs, but are also vulnerable to a wider range of spells (such as a ghost's Lockdown).
The construction of a terran building may be interrupted by destroying the SCV assigned to build it, since the SCV remains exposed during the process. Nevertheless, another SCV can be commanded to finish the building by right-clicking on the incomplete building with an SCV selected.
SCVs may also repair terran mechanical units and buildings, and even construct buildings such as bunkers near the fighting to aid the offensive. A few SCVs can keep a force on the attack longer before returning to base.
SCVs have the ability to carry campaign items such as psi-emitters or data disks.
Abilities
The SCV builds structures and harvests minerals and vespene gas. The SCV builds structures and harvests minerals and vespene gas. |
Restores the hit points of a terran mechanical unit or building. Repairing costs resources.

The SCV reappears in StarCraft II.
SCVs can be transported five at a time in a command center.[5]
The SCV seems to be able to float over small terrain features like bushes.[6]
