The design itself was created in response to a request from [[Perturabo]], [[Primarch]] of the [[Iron Warriors]], who demanded a vehicle that could deploy rapidly but also carry heavy fortress-breaking firepower.{{Fn|1}} As with many other classes of heavy tank, the Typhon fell out of use in the aftermath of the Horus Heresy. However some chapter's still have small amounts of Typhon's in service.{{Fn|2}}
