→Tempestus Aquilons: Added information from the referenced link, as well as fixed grammar
Elite Scions who exclusively go into battle wearing [[Grav-Chute]]s are called '''Tempestus Aquilons''' and are armed primarily with [[Hot-Shot Lasgun]]s{{Fn|37}} as well as [[Melta Gun|Melta Carbine]]s and [[Plasma Gun|Plasma Carbine]]s.{{Fn|39}} They are drawn from [[Schola Progenium]] recruits that display self-sufficiency, intuition, raw aggression, free thought, and improvisation.{{Fn|37}}{{Fn|39}}
While all Tempestus Scions are trained in grav-chute insertion, Aquilons differ in that they are entirely designed around such operations. For example, their hot-shot las carbines take magazines so they can fire during a drop without getting tangled up in cables. Once they land, they can swap to their back-mounted powerpacks.{{Fn|39}} Due to preferring to drop right into the middle of enemy lines, the Aquilons are required to have intense close-quarters training and can have specialists who are equipped with various short range weapons, like [[Melta Gun|melta carbine]]s and [[Plasma Gun|plasma carbine]]s. Their teams are led by '''Tempestors''' and also include the specialist ranks of '''Gunfighter''', '''Gunner''', '''Marksman''', '''Precursor''' and '''Grenadier'''. Aquilons Aquilon squadrons can be deployed with Grav-Chute equipped [[Servo-Sentries]] as well.{{Fn|37}}
