Blizzard has released their official unit information page on the Protoss unit, Phoenix, today. From this, we learn that the Phoenix will possibly replace the Scout and Corsairs from the StarCraft original series as well as the story line behind this great looking unit.
"The phoenix is a swift and deadly spacecraft that is rapidly replacing the older scouts and corsairs in the role of fighter for the Protoss. Phoenix patrols are a common sight on the outer rim of Protoss territory, where they sweep deep space for alien threats. The twin ion blaster armament of a phoenix is highly suited to air-to-air combat and can also be used for strafing light ground targets."
The SCZ Game Information unit database has been updated with all new known information.
