Kharybdis Storm Launcher

The Kharybdis Storm Launcher is a rapid firing missile launcher system that was used on Kharybdis Assault Claws once used by the Space Marine Legions during the Great Crusade and the Horus Heresy. This weapon system was designed to provide the Kharybdis with some measure of striking power as it closes with its target and to clear landing zones around the Kharybdis once it lands. The weapon worked by throwing nearby enemy resistance into total disarray by firing clusters of fragmentation and anti-armour warheads as the warriors on board disembarked. The Kharybdis was armed with five of these launchers, one covering a portion of the machine's outer diameter. Each Storm Launcher was controlled independently by an on-board augury-array, allowing accurate fire-control, even when tasked with targeting multiple individual targets.
