After the Battle of Signus Prime, Sanguinius decreed that all evidence of the Blood Angels' presence be removed, including the ''Red Tear''. It was raised and towed back to [[Baal]].{{Fn|2c}} However as with the rest of the Blood Angels fleet, it became lost within the [[Ruinstorm]] and emerged at [[Ultramar]]. The vessel was repaired at [[Macragge]] and again became Sanguinius' flagship.{{Fn|3}}
During the attempt by Sanguinius, [[Roboute Guilliman]], and [[Lion El'Jonson]] to breach the Ruinstorm and reach Terra, the ''Red Tear'' was the center of the Blood Angels fleet. It took part in both the [[Battle of Pyrrhan]] and [[Second Battle of Davin]], and was damaged by the [[Daemonship]] ''[[Veritas Ferrum]]'' in the latter. However following the battle the Blood Angels were able to make for a clear path to Terra, and Sanguinius led the journey from the ''Red Tear''.{{Fn|3}} The ''Red Tear'' made it to Terra and was used as the loyalist command vessel during the [[Battle of Beta-Garmon]].{{Fn|4}}
