Locust
Locusts were a pattern of light fighter-plane used by the forces of Chaos in the Sabbat Crusade, considered some of the Archenemy's lightest and nimblest aircraft in that theater.[1a] They were piloted by a single person.[2c] Equipped with vectored engines for sharper manoeuvres and chin-guns, they are long-nosed, twin-boomed, and covered in spikes.[2a] Locusts were also armed with six missiles,[2b] droppable payloads[2d] and were capable of reaching hypersonic speeds.[2b] Paint schemes varied depending on the Chaos fleet they served with. Common colors were various shades of red, with golden stripes[1b] or black tiger stripe patterns.[2b]
Large numbers of Locusts were deployed in Enok Innokenti's assault on the planet Herodor[1], and in the Blood Pact's campaign on Enothis[2] alongside Hell Blades[1c] and Hell Talons.[1d]
