Capable of both void and atmospheric flight, the Stormbird was first manufactured on [[Terra]], by the Yndonesic Bloc for use against the Panpacific tribes, during the [[Unification Wars]]. They were in use throughout the Great Crusade, although by the time of the [[Horus Heresy]], most of the Legions had switched to the smaller, more agile Thunderhawk. The [[Luna Wolves]] were one of the few Legions that deliberately kept Stormbirds in service, since these ships had carried them into battle since the beginning<sup>1a</sup>. A Stormbird was piloted by two Marines sitting back-to-back, along with two hard-wired servitors<sup>1a</sup>.
