The Nephilim Jetfighter is a fighter aircraft utilized by the Dark Angels and their Successor Chapters. Employed by their Ravenwing formations, the main role of the Nephilim Jetfighter is to conduct interceptor or air superiority missions over the battlefield, clearing the skies to allow their brethren on the ground to operate without fear of enemy air attacks. Of a robust and sturdy design, they are most commonly armed with twin-linked Heavy Bolters, twin-linked Lascannons, and six Blacksword Missiles. Some are also equipped with Avenger Mega Bolters.

History 历史

The Nephilim Jetfighter has only been used by the Unforgiven since M40, when the STC for improved jet engines was discovered by the Dark Angels while hunting a suspected Fallen known as Baelor the Imposter in the Nephilim Sector. Designated the Lionheart Engine, the technology was used to modify older aircraft designs and the end product was an agile fighter with improved speed. The Nephilim has proven itself on innumerable occasions, perhaps most notably during the Piscina IV campaign, when a trio of Nephilim Jetfighters were able to shoot down four dozen Ork aircraft. By keeping the skies clear of foes, they allowed the Dark Angels and local PDF to hold out against the Greenskin advance.

拿非利喷气式战斗机自M40以来才被不可饶恕者使用，当时黑暗天使在拿非利区追捕一名被称为冒名者贝勒的疑似堕天使时发现了改进喷气发动机的STC。该技术被命名为狮心引擎，用于修改旧飞机的设计，最终产品是一款速度更快的敏捷战斗机。拿非利已经在无数场合证明了自己，也许最值得注意的是在皮希纳四号战役中，当时三架拿非利喷气式战斗机能够击落四十架欧克飞机。通过保持天空没有敌人，他们允许黑暗天使和当地人民保卫部队抵抗绿皮的进攻。

Since then, the Nephilim has been a common sight in Unforgiven hands. In 146.M41 the Ravenwing formation was tasked with special reconnaissance missions during a massive tank battle between the Imperial Guard and Eldar on Kundra. After pressing deep into Eldar territory, the Dark Angels found themselves beset on all sides by the xenos' Grav-tanks. However with the aid of Nephilim jetfighters, the Ravenwing was able to clear the skies of the flying tanks and Jetbikes and win the day.

从那时起，拿非利就成为了不可饶恕者手中的常见景象。146.M41，在帝国卫队和昆德拉的灵族之间的一场大规模坦克战中，鸦翼编队被赋予了特殊的侦察任务。在深入灵族领地后，黑暗天使发现自己被异型的反重力坦克四面包围。然而，在拿非利喷气式战斗机的帮助下，鸦翼得以清除空中的飞行坦克和喷气摩托，并赢得了胜利。
