<p>It does, and you can. You don't even have to start the Strike team in the devilfish, so you could begin the game holding two objectives.

Why would _only_ one of the two devilfish have Objective Secured if both the Pathfinders and Firewarrior units act as troops and can take the Devilfish as a DT?

Pathfinders are Fast Attack, not Troops, so wouldn't have objective secured (nor would their transport).

<p>If I take a devilfish for my strike team in a combined arms detachment, will the transport have objective secured even after the unit has disembarked? If so, can I disembark the fire warriors on an objective and then take the devilfish to score at another objective?</p>

Does a dedicated transport for a troops unit retain objective secured after the troops disembark?
