The Harakoni Warhawks are an Imperial Guard Drop troop regiment from the planet Harakon. Harakon has a vey low gravity threshold, enabling the planetary hives to be built much higher than those of other worlds. The reduced gravity also makes the use of grav-glider popular among the native populace in transport and hunting of the wide range of local game. The generations-old adaptation to adverse gravity levels leaves the Harakoni Warhawks‎ predisposed to excel at grav chute drops from orbit. This style of combat also increases the Warhawks use of Stormtroopers and smaller unit tactics than standard line troopers.
