Manufactured on hundreds of [[Forge World]]s, the Hydra is a specialised vehicle used for mobile air defence, protecting important sites and columns from air assaults. Its [[Machine Spirit]]-assisted automated turret contains targeting and tracking equipment, including a predictive logic-engine, which allows it to lock onto and track enemy aircraft regardless of any evasive maneuvering. These control four long-barreled [[Autocannon]]s firing heavy calibre, high velocity explosive rounds capable of firing six hundred rounds a minute,{{Fn|6}} shredding through enemy aircraft fuselages thanks to their high rate of fire. When used against infantry and light vehicles these rounds are equally devastating, allowing even a single Hydra to decimate entire formations in a heartbeat. While the use of a Hydra in this role is a breach of official regulations, Imperial commanders often overlook such infractions.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3}}
