Raven Fighter

So flimsy, you almost forget that this thing kills tanks.

The Raven is the primary Dark Eldar strike fighter and is armed with two Dark Lances and one long-barrelled Splinter Cannon.

Some Dark Eldar raiding forces have noticed the extreme vulnerability of their light-weight transport skimmers, the Raiders and about damn time they figure out that sometimes a bit of armor actually helps. Therefore they have utilised Raven Fighters to support advancing Raiders by destroying tanks with their dark lances. After all available enemy tanks which might interrupt advancing of Raiders are destroyed, the Raven Fighters start to use their splinter cannons to pound enemy infantry positions in order to soften up their forces.

Despite being heavily armed for a light strike fighter, the Raven is still susceptible to the usual Dark Eldar standard-issue 'Worse than fucking Flak Armor' cardboard plating. So while fucking deadly against tanks and infantry, they start falling like flies when a dedicated anti-air vehicle such as the Hydra Flak Tank is in their line of sight.
