Warhammer 40,000: T'au Empire: Broadside Battlesuit (56-15)

The XV88 Broadside Battlesuit is one of the T’au Empire’s most formidable long-range assets, originally designed to provide dedicated fire support from afar. Over time, these battlesuits have far surpassed their intended role, earning a fearsome reputation as tank-hunters of legendary capability. Their heavy rail rifles—powered by advanced particle accelerators—are capable of punching through reinforced plasteel bunkers and obliterating armoured targets with unerring precision.

Heavily armoured yet surprisingly mobile for their size, Broadside Battlesuits bring exceptional versatility to any T’au Hunter Cadre. Each battlesuit carries a powerful particle accelerator mounted on its back, reinforcing its destructive potential. The standard armament is the imposing twin-linked rail rifle, a weapon renowned for its extreme range and armour-piercing strength. Alternatively, you can equip your Broadside with the devastating twin-linked high-yield missile pods, offering overwhelming barrages of explosive firepower. For even more tactical flexibility, twin-linked smart missiles are included—perfect for annihilating concealed or agile targets beyond line of sight. 

This multipart plastic kit builds one XV88 Broadside Battlesuit and two drones (Shield Drone and Missile Drone), providing excellent support options for your army. With robust design, dense proportions, and impressive battlefield presence, the Broadside makes a commanding addition to any T’au collection.
