Agamatus Jetbike Squadron

A Custodian Jetbike Rider

Agamatus Jetbike Squadrons were a type of Adeptus Custodes fast-attack unit during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy.

Equipping with Gyrfalcon Pattern Jetbikes, these squadrons served as rapid response and suppression unit in the field. In this they operate much in the manner of the elite cavalry forces of ancient times, screening the main Custodes force from potential encirclement, reacting quickly to blunt enemy attacks, and hunting down mercilessly any foe which breaks and flees before the might of the Legio Custodes, ensuring the utter extermination of the enemy. Besides their lances, Agamatus squadrons were equipped with a bike-mounted Adrathic Devastator, Lastrum Bolt Cannon, or Corve Las-Pulser.[1]

It is unknown if the rare Jetbikes of the Agamatus are still in use as of M41.
