A '''Devastator Squad ''' is the best [[Space Marine]] squad for ranged tank hunting, making up part of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th companies and the entire of the 9th company.
The basic squad is made up of 4 Space [[Devastator Marines ]] and 1 [[Sergeant]]. The squad can be increased in size to 9 Space Devastator Marines and the Sergeant can be upgraded to a [[Veteran Sergeant]]. They all wear the standard Space Marine [[Power Armour ]] and carry a [[Bolter]]. The Sergeant can exchange his Bolter for a [[Bolt Pistol ]] and [[Close Combat Weapon ]] while the Veteran Sergeant has access to the [[Space Marine Armoury]]. Up to four Space Marines can be armed with one of the following:
* [[Heavy Bolter]] * [[Missile Launcher]] * [[Lascannon]] * [[Multi-melta]] * [[Plasma Cannon ]]
They can also be mounted in a [[Rhino ]] or, if the squad numbers 6 or less, a [[Razorback]].
Devastator Squads are also known as [[Long Fangs, ]] in the [[Space Wolves]].
Some chapters are more inclined to use a larger number of Devastator Squads, such as the [[Dark Angels]]. These chapter's combat docterines favour the usage of devistating ammouts amouts of heavy weapons fire power over a furious close combat assault.
Devastator Squads are called [[Havoc Squads ]] in the [[Chaos Space Marines]].
