'''Hell Blades''' are aircraft designed to fill the role of interceptors, employed by Chaos forces, including [[Chaos Space Marine]]s and the more numerous Chaos militias such as the [[Blood Pact]]. They are used as fast and agile interceptors, engaging enemy aircraft while the larger [[Hell Talon]] fighter-bomber devastates ground targets. In this role they are armed with two twin-linked [[autocannon]]s.
The Hell Blade has a sleek, slim and deadly form, and is thought to be a product of a forge world in the Eye of Terror. Hell Blades are sometimes [[daemon]]ically possessed; in other cases they are piloted by a [[servitor]] hard-wired into the cockpit.
The '''Hell Razor''' class is a variant which was used by the [[Blood Pact]] on [[Enothis]].{{Fn|21}}
==History==
Hell Blade's saw massive use in [[Abaddon the Despoiler]]'s [[Thirteenth Black Crusade]] and became a common sight above besieged [[Imperial]] worlds. They did battle with heavily outnumbered [[Imperial Navy]] Fighter Wings, and claims that over 2,000 Hell Blades have been lost over [[Cadia]] alone exist.{{Fn|54}}
