Biohazard Technicians are personnel employed by both the Americans and the GLA during the GLA Conflict.

Game unit

Biohazard Technicians are campaign-only units that only appear in cutscenes and, more rarely, during missions. They cannot be trained in any mission, however, nor even be selected. They are of no threat, being completely unarmed, lightly armored, and crushable, and simply serve as mere props.

History

During the GLA Conflict, The Americans are known to have employed these personnel to help decontaminate the battlefield by removing toxins and radiation. They are seen decontaminating the bunkers at the Aral Sea facility. They are however absent during the GLA assault, implying that they have evacuated the area. Later they are seen decontaminating the area around the Baikonur Cosmodrome launch site prior to the GLA's arrival.

After the GLA took control of the Baikonur Cosmodrome, the GLA employed these technicians for their own purposes. Instead of decontaminating the area, however, they ironically were tasked with adding toxic waste to the missiles that the GLA planned to launch from the facility. Most of them were killed in the American MOAB strike that concluded the latter's efforts to retake the area.

Trivia

• In the mission Global Security, the GLA affiliated Biohazard Technicians can be killed by the player's forces. When killed they reuse the Rebel's death screams.
• Their clean toxins ability is copied from the Ambulance, with the exception of their being able to move while cleaning.
• Internally, the Biohazard Technician is considered an American-affiliated unit.
