The Avenger Strike Fighter is a superlative ground attack aircraft designed to operate alongside Solar Auxilia cohorts during planetary invasions. Named for its primary armament, the Avenger bolt cannon, the Avenger excels at performing strafing runs on enemy armoured formations, raking the vulnerable weaker sides of their armoured hulls with mass-reactive bolt shells. The Avenger can also be employed in the secondary role of interceptor, providing close air support for ground troops against enemy bomber squadrons.
The Solar Auxiliary is spoiled for choice when it comes to small, vicious dogfighters. Add Avenger Strike Fighters to your forces and provide massive firepower, which is protected by a tail gunner – rare on such a small craft. Their mix of weapons allows them to take a ground-attack role, or take out slow-moving bombers. They also have a unique style, looking like nothing else in your force with their down-swept wings, exposed engines and wide tails.
These models can also be used in games of Aeronautica Imperialis by mounting them on Aeronautica Imperialis bases, sold separately.
The set includes:
- 4x plastic Solar Auixilia Avenger Strike Fighter miniatures
- 4x Legions Imperialis 40mm Round Flying Bases with ball socket stems
- 1 Avenger Squadron transfer sheet
These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
