Actually it appears to be the ORCA Transport shown in the gameplay videos, as it is a sleek compact design like that Orca Transport in the video so I'm betting this is a research station of GDI's placed nearby the last Scrin Tower to monitor and study it. And as a nice double the research facility is in the most densely Tiberium rich Red Zone on the planet so doubles as a good station for furthering Tiberium research I would imagine. But it appears to be more of a relay station, perhaps monitoring the Tower to radio signals/transmissions and to monitor Energy readings as there are massive unknowns on the Tower for GDI I imagine they'd be watching it like a Hawk even after 11 years. Thou its possible they have become complacent in regards to the Tower and this has made it a good time for the Scrin to catch GDI by surprise with its Invasion force.
