An Infernum Pattern Razorback of the Dark Eagles Chapter.
The Infernum Pattern Razorback is a minor variant of the standard Razorback APC used by the Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes. The Infernum Pattern of the Razorback is a relatively new addition to the armouries of the Space Marines that has entered service amongst several Chapters, most notably those with homeworlds within the Segmentum Tempestus.
This pattern replaces the Razorback's default turret-mounted weapon load-out with a Multi-Melta and a searchlight. However, this change makes excessive demands on the vehicle's power cell conduits, and because of this flaw the Infernum Pattern is rarely deployed.
It is believed that the Techmarines of the now-extinct Fire Hawks Chapter formulated a means to circumvent this issue, and deployed these vehicles during the Badab War.
The Fire Hawks used these vehicles to smash through enemy fortifications with both speed and ease, delivering squads through the breach. It is unknown how far the usage of the Infernum Pattern has spread, or if this pattern has even been approved for widespread use by the Adeptus Mechanicus.

The Infernum Pattern Razorback is armed with a turret-mounted Multi-Melta and searchlight. The turret is remote-controlled from inside the vehicle using a targeting logis-engine similar to that found in the Land Raider.
The Infernum Pattern Razorback is also able to be outfitted with a Hunter-Killer Missile Launcher, Extra Armour Plating, a pintle-mounted Storm Bolter, ram spikes or a Dozer Blade, a searchlight, and Smoke Launchers.
