Impulsor

The Impulsor is a lightly-armoured and fast-moving anti-grav assault transport favoured by Vanguard Space Marine forces.

Benefiting from the same advanced gravitic-impulsion technology employed by the heavier Repulsor-class chassis, the Impulsor boasts vectored thrusters that give this light grav tank a healthy dose of speed.

Its open-backed design allows it to transport a full squad of 10 Space Marines swiftly into battle, entirely bypassing such obstacles as trench lines, river deltas, toxic industrial runoff and the like.

Role
Typically, these vehicles are saved for the delivery of the killing blow by Vanguard forces, or else employed in a similar capacity to Rhino APCs by other Primaris Space Marine forces who wish to deploy massed armoured columns or perform rapid outflanking manoeuvres.

As befits a vehicle that is often its squad's only support in hostile territory, the Impulsor can be rapidly refitted with a variety of weapons and defensive systems. For those troops expecting to face heavy incoming fire, the vehicle can mount an advanced shield dome atop its hull that sheathes it in a shimmering, protective Refractor Field.

Forward reconnaissance missions are facilitated by the deployment of Envoy-class Vox and Auspex arrays, while those squads requiring additional fire support can call upon either the Bellicatus Missile Array or an Ironhail Skytalon Array ideal for swatting enemy aircraft from the skies.
