Chiropteran Scout

The Chiropteran Scout is a type of Imperial reconnaissance aircraft that is rarely seen in combat due to its role.
It is named after Bats.
Overview[edit | edit source]
Often used when orbital Augur scans are insufficient for planetary reconnaissance, the Scout is small, poorly armored, and unarmed. However it is fast, manoeuvrable, and bristling with long-range auger arrays. When expecting trouble, they are typically escorted by fighters or a Gun-Cutter.
Although unconfirmed, but due to its advanced reconnaissance and intelligence gathering equipment, the Chiropteran Scout would most likely be a popular boon for Alpha Legionnaires and Raven Guard who will most likely gain access to one via either the black market or during the Horus Heresy-era.
They are, for all intents and purposes, the equivalent of the modern-day Blackbird.
