	The [[Primaris Space Marines]] finally got their first flyer model which is basically a [[Land Speeder]] but all [[Musclegirl\|jacked up.]] According to recent fluff these flying [[METAL BOXES]] come courtesy of [[Belisarius Cawl]] who figured out how to boost the output of the anti-grav systems of the regular Land Speeder enough to allow more armor and weapons on the craft without slowing it down. Suffice to say, the design of this thing has been...''interesting'' to say the least. With a half-dozen memes immediately spawning from its...odd placement of the gunner's seat. You see, rather than having a simple targeting computer, the main guns of the Storm Speeder is operated by a gunner, [[Derp\|who just so happens to have his head exposed in-between the weapon system.]] Similarly to the [[Invader ATV]], deaf jokes has been made at the gunner's expense, with many in [[/tg/]] mocking the design by stating that the gunner gets immediate invuln save from [[Sonic Weaponry\|Sonic Weapons]]. It also looks like even more of a [[METAL BOXES\|flying METHUL BAWKS]] than the normal Land Speeder, although this is the ''least'' of its design flaws. The Storm Speeder comes in three variant to serve the three food groups of armor, fliers, and hordes.

	In terms of its hull and movement stats. With a move of 16” it’s slightly slower than a bare-bones Land Speeder. Although it has a decent WS and BS of 3+ and a solid Toughness of 6. It only has 10 Wounds with a pretty meh Ld of 7. So a dedicated anti-air platform or a sharpshooter can bring this thing down pretty quickly. Moreover, its Strength of 5 really hammers (Ha!) home that it should stay clear from Dreadnought-equivalents. At the very least it retains the pretty sweet 3+ Sv.

	In 9th Edition, the Hailstrike is heavily armed with anti-Infantry weaponry, likely to eliminate a platoon of Guardsmen or Tyranids that think they're safe behind obscuring terrain.

The cheapest of the bunch, and competes with the Invader ATV. This vehicle has an edge in durability and firepower.
