Warhammer 40k: Traitor Guard Thunderbolt Fighter

Traitor Guard (or guardsmen), officially known as the Hereticus Militarium[9], is a term given to the vast majority of disloyal mortals who have left the Imperial Guard and Planetary Defence Forces in order to fight for Chaos. They are not a single coherent force, but rather a faction of the infinite collection of warbands and hosts under the leadership of Chaos Champions and part of the The Lost and the Damned.

In order to fulfil their own agendas, Champions of Chaos draw lesser Chaos followers to them to form their own personal armies, which can vary tremendously in size and strength. The Traitor Guard are among the better armed and minded troops that Chaos Champions and/or Arch-Heretics have at their disposal. Like other Imperial military deserters who have turned from their Emperor and fled from Imperial justice. Occasionally entire companies, or even regiments of the Imperial Guard turn to Chaos, and take with them their vehicles and armoury.

The Thunderbolt heavy fighter is one of the two main fighter aircraft patterns used by the Imperial Navy, the other of which is the Lightning air superiority fighter.

The Thunderbolt is the mainstay weapon system of Imperial Navy's Aeronautica Imperialis fighter wings and is a rugged, well-armed and armored heavy fighter with all-around capabilities, a good maximum speed and above-average maneuverability, powerful nose-mounted weapons.

It is an aircraft that is well-liked by those who fly and service it and it has served the cause of the Emperor for many centuries.
