In battle, Ravagers are nimble and swift, using their maneuverability to destroy more lumbering [[Human]] or [[Ork]] tanks. Ravager gunships are so fast and maneuverable that they can ambush an enemy tank and destroy it in a single pass, vanishing before the enemy even realizes what hit them. Their capabilities are further improved through their tactics, with Ravager crews being well-trained and well-briefed about their targets capabilities. Their commanders will assign then specific targets in battle, ensuring that the Ravager formation operates as a unified, efficient killing machine. A well-trained and led Ravager squadron is capable if appearing from nowhere and destroying even a [[Titan]] of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] in a single volley and disappearing over the horizon before the behemoth machine has even toppled to the ground.{{Fn|1}}
It is perhaps indicative of the mindset of Dark Eldar warfare that the Ravager, the most common of their gunshipd esignsgunship designs, bears even less in the way of armour plating than the personnel transport vehicles of the [[Imperium]]. Speed is prized above all else, and the Ravager's crew value the ability to avoid enemy fire than withstand it. With the oft-used tactic of unleashing heavy fire before swiftly moving to a new position, Raider pack hunting tactics have been able even bring down [[Imperial Titan]]s in single volleys.{{Fn|2}}
