That is not to say it isn't being used where the natural terrain or when there is an installation to be protected.
The tactics of the BETA share a LOT of similarities with the zerg swarms from Starcraft, I can't help but wonder if they played a impact in the BETA's original design.

Those destroyer-class BETA remind me of Roaches, the Fort-class ultralisks, the tank-class zerglings, etc.... Just hope the BETA don't come up with anything airborne like Brood Lords or Mutalisks, in that case, humanity is finished .
