XV25 Stealth Battlesuits are a T'au jet pack infantry unit that specializes in infiltration and anti-armour.

Description

For some foes, the only hint of danger is a slight sensor-ghost, or the unnerving feeling of being watched. For others there is no warning at all, before the world lights up with chattering burst cannons and hissing fusion blasters. Flickering out from amid their camouflage fields come the T'au Stealth Suits, their point-blank salvoes chopping enemy infantry to steaming offal and blowing their armoured vehicles sky high.
