Originally they were. They swapped the role to amarr because amarr had pretty much nothing going for it. Descriptions were never updated.
Usually banned for being too awesome.

Lol, so that's what tenuous consolation feels like. Poor Amarr scout. |

The same reason why charge sniper rifles are supposed to be capable of rapid uncharged fire, and HMGs supposedly get more accurate as you fire.
because **** you, that's why.
Some details can be ignored

they took cal scout bonus for scans and gave it to the ammar scout because it didn't have any bonus to ewar I think
so now the best scans are for ammar
even with just two slots they get better passive scans
at lvl 5 prof for the scout suit and precision you get 18 db and can get below 18 db damped
so not only are they basically impossible to see but they will always see you before you see them,
but hey all is fair in love and war |

Probably around the same time they change the Toxin SMG so the flavor text doesn't imply it has poison rounds.

And it can be used as a light assault??
seems odd

Descriptions in Dust are very often completely inaccurate to the actual performance of the weapon or suit, many of these descriptions have existed since extremely early Beta, and have never been fixed even years later.

You think Active Scans are bad? Try 100m radius, always on, no warning, perma scans. That crap needed to go.

you realize the ammar can basically achieve the same now but only for about half that range instead of 100 its about 45-50m

Hold on a second, Golden. The "descriptions" in the suit market aren't really meant at all to help you make good choices during your development in the game. (..) They are imaginative descriptions sometimes based heavily on EVE LORE, or sometimes trying to paint a fantasy image of huge Arms-Manufacturers promoting their mighty new gear as " a countermeasure to the recent crisis" or "the guarantee that our product is top of the line, and proven effective".
The Caldari Scout suit description about "designing for counter-insurgent use" may be loosely referring to the famous Black Eagles "Operation Highlander" in which Gallente had committed multiple INSURGENCIES into Caldari areas and spied on them without the Caldari knowing at all. Like the mystical description of that NSV Caldari suit that "adapts to the user's movements and eventually predicts them"GǪ it's just flashy New Eden melodrama, not too useful for telling you what the gear can really do/not do in a player's hands.
GǪThink of it as a Used Car dealer trying to convince you that HIS models are the best, and were recently fitted with seat belts to withstand that earthquake we had just last month...
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...
