Eagle Bomber
The Eagle Bomber is a type of Eldar bomber.[1] Eagle bombers are often piloted by Amon Harakht, Eagle Pilots.
Slower than the Darkstar Fighter[2], the Eagle carries a modified holofield generator to protect it from enemy sensors which distorts the image of the bomber at close range, as well as sonic charges which can blast through the thickest armour. Its targeting systems allow pinpoint accuracy and coupled with the difficulty in hitting them, the Eagle is one of the best bombers in the galaxy.[1] Such is its agility that it can even survive a dogfight with enemy fighters.[2]
Eagle Bombers, like many Eldar craft, are outfitted with crystal-glass canopies, pict-skin screens, and Infinity Circuits which sound in a screaming crescendo as they align targets.
