The Ravenwing is the Second Company of the Dark Angels Space Marines Chapter. Like the First Company, the Deathwing, the Ravenwing are not part of the Codex Astartes structure - although the remaining companies of the chapter adhere to the Codex. Although a versatile and tactically flexible fast-attack force, the true role of the Ravenwing is to hunt members of The Fallen. This secret is only known to high-ranking Black Knights and members of the Inner Circle.
鸦翼是黑暗天使星际战士第二连队。与第一连队、死翼一样，鸦翼不是阿斯塔特圣典结构的一部分，尽管该战团的其余连队都遵守圣典。尽管鸦翼是一支多才多艺、战术灵活的快速攻击部队，但它的真正作用是追捕堕天使。这个秘密只有高级黑骑士和内环成员知道。

Overview 概述
The origin of the Ravenwing dates back to pre-Imperial times; originating from both Terran and Caliban. The Wing most changed by the return of Lion El'Jonson, the Ravenwing was named for the Calibanite Order of the Raven which had trained the most fearsome mounted warriors to be found on that savage world, who rode black horses and "could survive alone in the deadly forests of Caliban, heroic figures in matt black armour and winged helms.". Combining those warriors of the Order of the Raven inducted into the Dark Angels with the remnants of the Hosts of Wind and Void, the Lion created a formation that would carve a legend for itself on the battlefields of the Great Crusade and beyond. Based around the principles of mobile attacks, of strike and fade tactics and skirmish warfare, the Ravenwing excelled at the use of light skimmers and aircraft, but also incorporated significant infantry assets. These were mostly reconnaissance squadrons, though among those infantry units specialised in the use of drop pods and other orbital assault doctrines, there were many initiates of the Ravenwing marked by the symbol of a white corvid. When the Legion gave battle to a foe that sought to evade or confuse them, or one whose overwhelming power compelled them to counter it with speed, it was the initiates of the Ravenwing that took to the fore. These initiates were often considered mavericks and glory-hounds by the more hidebound veterans of the other Wings, for the Ravenwing retained a number of more barbaric customs associated with its recruits, many of which hailed from remote feudal worlds. As such, those Calibanite warriors who gained admission to its ranks were often those out of favour with the Masters of the more prestigious Wings or those eager to forge their own legend. It’s role was designed by the Emperor during the Unification Wars as part of the Hosts of the First Legion.
鸦翼的起源可以追溯到帝国时代之前；源自泰拉和卡利班。随着莱昂·艾尔庄森的回归，鸦翼的变化最大，鸦翼以卡利班骑士团渡鸦命名，该骑士团训练了蛮荒世界中最可怕的骑兵，他们骑着黑马，“可以在卡利班的致命森林中独自生存，穿着亚光黑色盔甲和带翼头盔的英雄人物”。将那些被引入黑暗天使的渡鸦骑士团战士与流风与虚空天军的残余结合起来，莱昂创造了一个编队，将在大远征及以后的战场上为自己雕刻一个传奇。基于机动攻击、打击和淡入战术以及小规模战斗的原则，鸦翼擅长使用轻型悬浮载具和飞行器，但也包括大量的步兵资产。这些大多是侦查中队，尽管在那些专门使用空投舱和其他轨道攻击理论的步兵部队中，有许多鸦翼的信徒以白鸦的象征为标志。当军团与一个试图躲避或迷惑他们的敌人作战，或者一个压倒性的力量迫使他们快速反击的敌人作战时，鸦翼的信徒脱颖而出。这些信徒经常被其他翼的保守派老兵视为特立独行和荣耀的猎犬，因为鸦翼保留了许多与新兵相关的更野蛮的习俗，其中许多来自偏远的封建世界。因此，那些加入其行列的卡利班战士往往是那些不受更负盛名的翼的导师青睐的人，或者那些渴望打造自己传奇的人。它的角色是由帝皇在统一战争期间设计的，作为第一军团的一部分。
The Ravenwing is a highly specialized formation where speed is more important than heavy firepower. To this end, all of the marines in the company ride into battle on Bikes or Land Speeders on land, including specialized vehicles such as the Land Speeder Vengeance and Darkshroud. In the air, the Ravenwing employs Dark Talons and Nephilim Jetfighters. The Ravenwing's hidden role within the chapter is that of mobile hunters, eternally prowling for their traitorous ancestors, The Fallen. Instead of the usual dark green panoply of the rest of the chapter, the Ravenwing's armour and vehicles are painted jet black, echoing the original colours of the Dark Angels Legion. The Ravenwing also contains specialized sub-formations, such as Ravenwing Command Squads, support squads, Apothecaries, Champions, Ancients, and Ravenwing Black Knights, the latter of whom are the most hardened veterans of the Ravenwing with access to the 2nd Company's Inner Circle. It is these warriors that know the Ravenwing's true mission, hunting the Fallen, and thus they are closely monitored by Chaplain's to make sure their loyalty is in check.
鸦翼是一个高度专业化的编队，速度比火力更重要。为此，该连队的所有战士都骑着摩托或陆地上的兰德速攻艇参加战斗，包括兰德速攻艇复仇和黑幕等专用载具。在空中，鸦翼使用暗爪和拿非利喷气式战斗机。鸦翼在战团中的隐藏角色是流动的猎手，永远在寻找他们叛逆的先祖堕天使。鸦翼的盔甲和载具被漆成深黑色，而不是战团其余部分通常的深绿色，与黑暗天使军团的原始颜色相呼应。鸦翼还包含专门的子编队，如鸦翼指挥组、支援小队、药剂师、冠军、旗手和鸦翼黑骑士，后者是鸦翼最老练的老兵，可以进入第二连队的内环。正是这些战士知道鸦翼的真正使命，狩猎堕天使，因此他们受到牧师的密切监视，以确保他们的忠诚得到控制。
Organization of the Ravenwing 鸦翼组织
The Ravenwing typically operates in 10-man squads spread out across different vehicles. Typically, this includes 6 Battle-Brothers on Bikes, two on an Attack Bike, and two more on a Land Speeder. The Master of the Ravenwing could be fielded on a bike or custom Land Speeder. Ravenwing squads are overseen by Talonmasters, which are roughly the equivalent of a Lieutenant. It is rumored that the Ravenwing are oversized in violation of the Adeptus Astartes.
鸦翼通常以10人小队的形式运作，分散在不同的载具上。通常，这包括6个驾驶摩托的战斗兄弟，两个驾驶攻击摩托，还有两个驾驶兰德速攻艇。鸦翼的导师可以驾驶摩托或定制的兰德速攻艇。鸦翼小队由利爪大师监督，利爪大师大致相当于副官。据传，鸦翼的规模过大，违反了阿斯塔特修会的规定。
Ravenwing Command Squad 鸦翼指挥组
During battle, should the Ravenwing face an especially dangerous task they activate the teleportation homers on their bikes, summoning a force of Deathwing and all but guaranteeing victory.
在战斗中，如果鸦翼面临特别危险的任务，他们会激活摩托上的传送信标，召唤死翼的部队，几乎可以保证胜利。

In 666.M38, three successive Grand Masters of the Ravenwing were lost in a single year hunting a group of Fallen, resulting an unprecedented two-decade period where the Ravenwing had no Grand Master, instead using the Master of the Angels of Vengeance as its commander until a suitable replacement could be found.
666.M38，连续三位鸦翼大导师在一年内猎杀一群堕天使时迷失，导致鸦翼前所未有的二十年没有大导师，而是使用复仇天使导师作为指挥官，直到找到合适的替代者。
The Master of the Ravenwing is known as the Ravenbringer.
鸦翼的导师被称为渡鸦使者。
