The Leman Russ Vanquisher is a much rarer and more advanced variant of the standard Leman Russ as the long-barrelled Vanquisher Cannon mounted on the Leman Russ Vanquisher is capable of firing powerful anti-tank shells. Amongst the many variants of the Leman Russ main battle tank, the Vanquisher is the only one which serves as a dedicated tank hunter. The Vanquisher Cannon is able to rip open any other tank with one well-placed shot, and even threaten a mighty Titan caught with its Void Shields down. However, the Vanquisher's lack of antipersonnel weaponry leaves it relatively vulnerable to infantry attacks, and thus the Vanquisher rarely operates alone but is supported either by squads of Imperial Guardsmen, or other Leman Russ variants better equipped to deal with infantry.
