==Overview==
They are mainly based around [[Phobos]], with limited deployment on [[Mars]]. In the base game, they are only encountered during the final phase of the [[Cerberus Vae III]] and [[Dust Palace]] strikes. The Skyburners play a larger role in ''[[The Taken King]]'' expansion.

The Valus himself even used Skyburner soldiers as his personal guard until his assassination. In both cases however the Skyburners suffer total casualties.
