During this deployment the Raptors make use of desert camouflage.³

775.M41-777.M41 - The Raptors along with the [[Dark Angels]], [[Skull Bearers]] and [[Red Wolves]] are called upon to pacify the [[Fourth Quadrant]] and help quell the largest civil war the Imperium has seen in one thousand years. During their three year involvement the Raptors fight alongside elements of [[Battlefleet Solar]] focusing on the [[Sulsalid Sub-sector]] where several Imperial tasksforces have been unsuccessful at stamping out the ideas of "progress" and "democracy" which have taken root at the sub-sector capital [[Auranar]]. The Raptors take command of the [[Imperial Guard]] units and make use of them as diversions for the many precision strikes against the enemy's command and supply infrastructure. With the enemy forces in disarray following these strikes the Imperial Guard are able to overwhelm the majority of traitor units while the Raptors assault the sky-palaces of the [[Sulsalid]] [[Ordinators]] mercilessly killing them and thus ending the revolt within the [[Sulsalid Sub-sector]]. It is worth noting that during this action the Raptors fought at full chapter strength, something unusual for the often independently operating companies.⁶

906.M41 - The Raptors answer [[Inquisitor Legate]] [[Jarndyce Frain]]’s call for assistance fighting the Secessionist forces in the Badab Sector. Arriving along side the [[Red Scorpions]], [[Fire Angels]] and [[Salamanders]], the Raptors, led by [[Lias Issodon]] himself, deploy their 2^nd, 5^th and 6^th companies bolstered by assault reserves and [[scouts]]. The committed fleet elements for the Raptors include the [[battle barge]] ''War Talon'', two [[strike cruiser]]s, the ''Arias Vex'' and ''Shadow Stalker'' all accompanied by ten [[Gladius Frigate|Gladius]] class [[frigate]]s.⁶
