The Wraithknight is a massive Wraithbone construct, towering even over the tall Wraithguard and massive Wraithlord. They can be armed with a pair of massive fuck-off Wraithcannons, a Suncannon or a Scattershield and a huge Ghost Glaive.
They are for the Eldar what the XV-104 Riptide and Dreadknight are to the Tau and Grey Knights, except less stupid in the case of the latter. It is an enormous model and a lethal one, making it a massive fire magnet in a more literal way than usual. While it's habilities are kind of meh (both 4), it's Monstrous Creature with S 10 and 5 attacks and I 5. It's impressive in defense but not to much: T8, 6 wouns and 3+ armor; also the option of a 5++ blinding anyone at 6' each time it saves this way. Cool, but sort of disappointing.
Like other wraithbone constructs, Wraithknights are animated by souls of dead Eldar. Wraithknights are special because they also have pilots; in particular, the pilot must be the twin of the soul animating the machine. It seems that the modeler must have been watching Evangelion the night before designing the Wraithknight; also note the Eva fins on the shoudlers and compare the default color scheme to Unit-02.
