XV95 Ghostkeel Battlesuit is a T'au jet pack monstrous creature unit that provides concealment and debuffs enemies.

Description

Ghostkeel Battlesuits lunge from the shadows to rake their prey with lethal volleys of fire. Wreathed in stealth fields projected by their hovering drones, the half-seen battlesuits move with terrifying speed for their size. One moment the enemy is advancing across the battlefield, the next looming killers are bounding through their midst with guns blazing. Panicked return fire flies wide, the Ghostkeels' attackers unable to draw a bead on their sensor-baffled targets.
