Solar Son
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Solar Son was a Strike Cruiser in the Imperial Fists Legion, during the Horus Heresy and was part of the First Sphere battlefleet, that defended the Sol System. When the Solar War began, it fought the forces of Horus in the Trans-Plutonian Gulf, until the sheer number of traitor warships exiting the Warp caused a backwash of etheric lightning that struck the Cruiser. This caused the Solar Son to spin away from the First Sphere battlefleet, as the power of the Warp began to crack and crumple its hull.[1]
