 Some [[Tech-Priest]]s claim that one of the more exotic and unusual weapons of the Predator was a [[Graviton Cannon]], though there are no examples of it existing in the [[M41]] and the ability to re-create it remains unknown to this day.{{Fn|8a}}

-The '''Predator Destructor''' is the original model of Predator battle tanks, with its origins dating back to the [[Dark Age of Technology]]. The Predator was built in direct response to the threat of [[Orks]], which were proving difficult for humanity to handle. Its combination of heavier armour and weaponry allowed the Predator to withstand Orkish attacks and easily destroy their vehicles. Soon the Predator became the standard fighting vehicle for all of humanity's armies, and would remain in that position throughout the Great Crusade, where its small troop carrying capacity would be replaced with space for more ammunition.{{Fn|1a}}  Eventually, similar to the Rhino it was based off of, the Predator Destructor would be restricted to use by the Space Marines only.{{CME}}
