The '''Vampire Raider''' is a large [[Eldar]] aircraft used in a similar way to the [[Thunderhawk Transporter]]. It is used to move troops from orbit to the ground and is quite heavily armed, enabling it to fulfil the roll of rapid response unit. It has [[Pulse Laser]]s, [[Scatter Lasers]], [[Phoenix Missile Launcher]]s and [[Pulsar]]s of varying design but can also carry large numbers of troops at once. It is also fitted with Eldar Titan [[Holo-fields]].<sup>1-p60</sup>
