Leman Russ

The Leman Russ is the core battle tank of the Astra Militarum, forming the spearhead of countless armoured attacks. Those enemies that do not fall to the bombardment of their cannons and numerous hull-mounted guns are crushed mercilessly beneath their heavy treads. These reliable and formidable tanks can be found in nearly every Imperial Guard regiment in the galaxy, and have become synonymous with the Imperium's fury. The Leman Russ is not a sophisticated vehicle and contains little in the way of advanced targeting or control devices. What it lacks in technology, it makes up for in ruggedness and reliability. A Leman Russ can survive the most extreme of climates and keep operating. From the freezing chill of methane swamps and ice worlds to the blistering heat of sulphur deserts. Through snow, sand or jungles the Leman Russ never fails. It can withstand all but the very worst nature can throw at it and keep fighting.
