From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
→Overview
Alongside these specific squad formations, the Ultramarines 1st Company members have access to the [[Chapter]]'s full [[Armoury]], allowing them to deploy using their favoured wargear. The 1st Company benefits from a wealth of vehicles, from the Chapter's fleet of [[Land Raider]]s and [[Repulsor]]s, to squadrons of [[Stormraven Gunship]]s and several [[Dreadnought]]s.{{Fn|1}}
Additionally, members of the 1st are often attached to other [[Battle Company|Battle]] and [[Reserve Companies]] all over the [[Galaxy]], lending their strategic wisdom and martial skill to support and inspire their less skilled [[Battle-Brothers]]. Sometimes, individual veterans of the 1st are chosen to join the ranks of the [[Victrix Guard]], guarding important leaders such as the [[Chapter Master]].{{Fn|1}}
The 1st Company is famous for its '''Strike Force Ultra''' formations. This formation mobilizes as many battle-brothers in suits of [[Terminator Armour]] as possible and supports them with [[Land Raider]]s and [[Stormraven Gunship]]s. This allows for fast transportation of heavy-hitting forces that can crack the toughest of targets. Recently, this formation has been updated to use [[Repulsor]]s to carry [[Intercessor]] veterans.{{Fn|1}}
