The '''Ravager Attack Ship''' is an [[Ork]] torpedo boat. Unlike in [[Imperial]] fleets, [[torpedo]]es are not a major strategy for the Orks, probably due to the unreliability of their reloading teams and the poor quality of those torpedoes. As such, Ravagers are rarely seen in dedicated squadrons the way that Imperial [[Cobra Destroyer]]s are, instead being more commonly mixed in with [[Onslaught Attack Ship|Onslaughts]] and [[Savage Gunship|Savages]].<sup>1</sup>
All the downsides inherent in Ork torpedo usage are made up for by the sheer size of a Ravager's torpedo launchas. With a bit of luck (which is helped by having some captured torpedoes on hand), a volley from a Ravager can equal that of an Imperial [[Cruiser]].<sup>1</sup>
