Irathei Shipyards

The Irathei Shipyards is an orbital shipyard that fell to an invasion by Tyranids and was infested by the Xenos. Sometime later the Forgefather Vulkan He'stan led a strikeforce from the Salamanders Chapter to purge the shipyard, as he believed it contained clues that would aid him in his hunt for the lost Artefacts of Vulkan. The fighting between the Salamanders and Tyranids lasted for days, but the Space Marines were ultimately victorious and the Irathei Shipyards were returned to the Imperium.[1]
