Description
The Fire Raptor, also known as the Fire Raptor Gunship, is a specialized variant of the Storm Eagle gunship. It was first used by the Space Marine Legions during the Great Crusade in the late 30th Millennium.
The Fire Raptor replaces the storage capacity of the Storm Eagle with increased ammunition stowage to feed the voracious appetite of its many weapon systems. The Fire Raptor is deployed as heavy support for landing Astartes transports, such as the Thunderhawk, and during Drop Pod assaults.
Armament
The Fire Raptor carries a formidable range of heavy weaponry, the most destructive of which is its nose-mounted twin-linked Avenger Bolt Cannons. The craft is also armed with two waist-mounted ball turrets, each manually operated by a Space Marine gunner, allowing them to engage targets independently of the vehicle’s main weapons.
These weapons can include quad-linked Heavy Bolters or twin-linked Autocannons. The aircraft is also armed with four wing-mounted Hellstrike Missiles, or if it belongs to the Blood Angels Chapter, it can be armed with a Revelation-class Warhead Battery.
The Fire Raptor is also equipped with a Machine Spirit and Extra Armour Plating.
All Fire Raptors can be outfitted with Armoured Ceramite Plating for extra protection from enemy fire.
