The Skylance was a type of gunship used during the Unification Wars by the forces of the Emperor. Employed by the Thunder Warriors and early Astartes, when Unification was complete the Skylance was replaced by the more potent Stormbird in preparation for the Great Crusade.

天空长枪是统一战争期间帝皇部队使用的一种炮艇。在雷霆战士和早期阿斯塔特的应用下，当统一完成时，天空长枪被更强大的风暴鸟所取代，为大远征做准备。

Some Skylances still exist after the Horus Heresy and are used by the Chaos Space Marines.

在荷鲁斯叛乱之后，一些天空长枪仍然存在，并被混沌星际战士使用。
