ravenwing

Ravenwing refers to the 2nd Company of the Dark Angels Space Marine Chapter and its associated successor chapters. This company is distinguished by its heavy reliance on vehicles and bikes, making it the elite assault and reconnaissance force of the Dark Angels. They are known for their speed, mobility, and devastating close-range firepower, often used to flank enemy positions, spearhead assaults, or pursue retreating foes.

The Ravenwing's doctrine emphasizes swift strikes and the exploitation of enemy weaknesses. Their warriors are highly skilled pilots, adept at operating a variety of vehicles including Land Speeders, Ravenwing Attack Bikes, and the formidable Ravenwing Command Squad's vehicles. This specialized focus allows them to operate independently or in conjunction with other Dark Angels formations, providing critical support and rapid response capabilities on the battlefield.

Their distinctive black armour, often adorned with wing motifs and the symbol of the Dark Angels, signifies their unique role. The Ravenwing are fiercely loyal and dedicated to the pursuit of the Fallen, the heretical Dark Angels who betrayed the Emperor, a sacred duty that permeates their every action. Their operational tempo is extremely high, reflecting their status as the Chapter's swift fist.
