==Overview== The thing is little more than an armored compartment with two engines strapped to the sides and a massive gun hanging underneath. Like a [[Sentinel]] with a jet pack. The vehicle is meant for lightning-fast anti-infantry support fire, a niche [[Land Speeder|already filled by]] [[Storm Eagle|a number of]] [[Drop Pod|other Imperial vehicles]], most of whom are a lot sturdier than the Stormtalon. GW noticed this little oversight, so in order to force you to buy it anyway they made it a flyer in [[6th edition]]. If you've played Command and Conquer you might notice a certain resemblance to [http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/cnc/images/7/75/Orca_Fighter_2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20060602082121 GDI's Orca gunship] (as well as being about as fragile to boot). Obviously purely coincidental, after all, [[Genestealers|ripping]] [[Necrons|off]] [[Chaos|other]] [[Battlesuit|franchises]] [[Navigator|is]] [[Adeptus Arbites|bad]]. (Also looks kind of like the [[Iron Eagle Gyrocopter]].) No evidence is yet possessed on how pissed off the [[Imperial Navy]] are that the Space Marines now have their own dogfighter, which was meant to be solely the Navy's domain. There have been several <s>doomed</s> <s>valiant</s> '''questionable''' efforts by modelers to convert the Stormtalon into something that doesn't look completely ridiculous, but their success on the matter is debatable (just remove the jets and add proper rotors, the hull's already taken from an attack helicopter). The new [[Stormhawk|Stormhawk Interceptor,]] which appears to be a variant of the Stormtalon design, also looks for all the world like it's ripping off the Stormtalon conversions people have been making. Just look at it!
