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. Still a lot of [[Master of the Forge|Masters of the Forge]] reluctant to use Typhons in all but the direst circumstances, believing that their creation's bonds with Perturabo may stain their machine-spirits forever.{{Fn|2a}}
The main weapon of the Typhon - [[Dreadhammer Cannon]] can demolish any fortifications of the enemy and since Great Crusade provided strong siege addition to any [[Space Marine]] army.{{Fn|2a}}
[[Chaos Space Marine]] warbands are still known to use Typhon's, but these are relics of the [[Great Crusade]] and have long since been Daemonically corrupted.{{Fn|4}}
