The '''Deimos Pattern Predator''' is an older design of [[Predator|Predator Battle Tank]], dating back to the [[Great Crusade]].{{Fn|2}}
==Overview==
An ancient and revered design of Predator Tanktank, cited by the [[Codex Astartes]] as a spiritual mentor, no less, there are almost as many patterns of Predator as there are of the ubiquitous [[Rhino]] hull it is based upon. One such variant is the Deimos Pattern Predator, first issued en-masse to the [[Space Marine Legion]]s of the [[Great Crusade]]. Artificer-crafted by the finest machine-wrights of the great forge-complexes of [[Mars]], the Deimos Pattern Predator has since been replaced by the [[Predator|Mars Pattern Mk.IVb]] variant by those [[Chapter]]s who are supplied with this pattern.{{Fn|2a}}
==Technical Information==
}}
Some Legions such as the [[Imperial Fists]]{{Fn|4b}} and [[Blood Angels]]{{Fn|4c}}, also made use of the [[Iliastus Pattern Assault Cannon|Iliastus Assault Cannon]] on the main turret, a prototype weapon designed as a more compact and portable variant of the [[Assault_cannon#Known_Patterns|Kheres]] pattern.{{Fn|4b}}.
