The '''Sky Raiders''' are a warband of [[Eldar Corsair]]s. {{Fn|1}} They fought in support of [[Craftworld]]s [[Mymeara]] and [[Alaitoc]] in the invasion of [[Betalis III]] and the battle of the [[Karina Nebula]] fought immediately afterwards. They Sky Raiders are notorious for the viciousness of their attacks, raids of such brutality that they are often mistaken for incursions by [[Dark Eldar]].{{Fn|1}}
During the [[Battle of the Karina Nebula]], the Sky Raiders suffered extremely heavy casualties at the hands of [[Space Wolves]]. Most of their ships were boarded and their crews wiped out in the ensuing battle, and those ships which escaped the Imperial onslaught were heavily damaged.{{Fn|1}}
More recently, the warband sent forces to [[War Zone Laevenir]] to aid their Craftworld and Harlequin kin against the [[Tyranids]].{{Fn|2}}
