====Corrosive Infestation====

[[File:14435199_f1024.jpg|300px|right|thumb|The assault carrier of the family.]]

The first Tyranid bio-ship that is also effectively a carrier. The Corrosive Infestation Razorfiend is a torpedo-heavy carrier with some decent close-range defences.

Even with the Tyranid's already overall close-range attack profiles, the Corrosive Infestation is deliberately a close-range assault Carrier. Thanks to the [[Bio-Torpedo|Bio-Torpedoes]], this might be the preferable option if you think you'll be wanting your carriers fighting up close with the enemy as opposed to far away.

The Corrosive Infestation Razorfiend is extra useful when you aren't stacking carriers, but want some amount of squadron deployment to supplement your fleet. This is due to the fact that since it can launch torpedoes unlike the other Cruiser Carrier, it can use them to distract defence turrets for the assault boats to make it to their targets. In the opposite fashion, the Corrosive Infestation Razorfiend can send out interceptors to cover for their torpedo launches to prevent them from being shot down.

If you are forgoing on having multiple carriers to deploy complimenting squadrons of interceptors/assaults in large numbers, consider this vessel for your needs.

It is armed with 6 [[Bio-Torpedo]] Launchers, 2 Launch Bays carrying [[Tyranid_Harpy|Harpies]] and [[Ether-Swimming Brood]]s and 2 [[Pyro-Acid Battery]] Weapons.
