Tau Tiger Shark AX-1-0 Bomber
When first faced with Imperial Titans and Super Heavy tanks on Taros, the
Tau realised they did not have enough Mantas to face the numbers the
Imperium could throw at them.� The first counter they developed was
to modify the Tiger Shark bomber to carry heavier guns.� Out came
the Drone bay and Ion Cannons to be replaced with a pair of Rail Cannons
and extra missiles.� Its speed and firepower allowed it to hit its
targets hard and then withdraw out of range before the enemy had time to
retaliate.� The design was so effective it has been retained by the
Tau as a standard design.
