ok, please correct me if i am wrong.
you can give the Dreadknight the personal teleporter. have him infiltrate within 18. scout move within 12. move 11. assault 1. and you save your shunt for later.

or

set up as far towards you opponent as possable (12 on pitched battle) scout move 12 (24 inches in) move 12 as JI (36 inches in) assault 6 (42 inches in). so unless your opponent has everything on the back 5 3/4 you can still do it.

Can't infiltrate it, you can only give it scouts by using the Grand Strategy special rule of a Grey Knight Grand Master, generic or named.

At work, but Scout USR allows the unit to also Infiltrate iirc.

Scout allows scout or outflank, not infiltrate.

Infiltrate allows infiltrate or outflank, not scout.

It says "Interceptor Squads only" because it's detailing Strike Squads and Interceptor Squads on the same page, as the only difference between them statswise is the teleporter pack. Doesn't take a genius to figure out...

it states(p94)

*may take a personal teleporter

*this works just like the interceptor squad personal teleporter(page 28)

(p28)

Personal Teleporter (Intercepter Squad only)
Units with personal teleporters are Jump Infantry. Once per game, the unit can elect to make a teleport shunt, the unit immediately makes a move of up to 30" in any direction. This move cannot end on top of units terrain and so on. A unit that moves via a teleport shunt cannot assault in the same turn, although it can shoot or run as normal. The unit counts as having moved.

Scout does not allow you to infiltrate.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe.

No where does this say that it keeps it's MC status. While RAI it should, RAW it does not.

Funny nitpick: only units with personal teleporters are Jump Infantry. the dread knight only has one

He is stating that you need to have teleporterS, and the DK only has A teleporter.

can i take a unit of 3 dreadknights as 1 HS choice? that would be great. but you have 10 guys at +6 points each for the teleporterS and a MC gets it for +75. he must have many teleporterS attached to him for those point costs.(LOL)
