Biker squadrons of the Space Wolves chapter come entirely from the younger members of the chapter, the "Blood Claws". Other Space Marine chapters have their own, specialized configurations of their biker squadrons. Riders sometimes carry a support weapon such as a flamer or meltagun. Each bike is equipped with twin-linked bolters as standard armament. :In the game's background, bikes are used primarily by the Space Marines, although use by the Imperial Guard is not unheard of. cite journal | authorlink = | title = Space Marine Bike Squadrons | journal = White Dwarf | volume = 201 | pages = 21–25 | date= October 1996 | publisher = Games Workshop] The standard Space Marine Bike plastic kit still in use today was introduced in 1993 along with the second edition of Warhammer 40,000. The fairing (the handle bars and front head light) was separate, made entirely of metal, though it was already armed with the twin-linked bolters that the latest version is armed with. :Space Marine Bikes first made an appearance in the late 1980s with the 1st edition of Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, where they are referred to as the " Vincent Black Shadow". cite book | last = Haines | first = Pete | coauthors = Graham McNeill | title =, 4th edition | publisher = Games Workshop |location=Nottingham | date= 2004 | pages = pp. Though classified as a "vehicle" for obvious reasons, in-game, bikes are treated as infantry models that can move further and are a bit more resilient.

The list includes but is not limited to various armoured fighting vehicles, aircraft and spacecraft.Īrmoured Fighting Vehicles (and skimmers) Vehicles are taken from the entire in-game and in-background history of the Space Marines, and ranges from archaic designs as the "Space Marine Jetbike" to recent additions such as the "Space Marine Land Speeder Typhoon".
The information is drawn primarily from the Space Marine army lists for the Warhammer 40,000 and Epic tabletop games, but is supplemented by other games where the Space Marines have made appearances in, such as Battlefleet Gothic and Aeronautica Imperialis. This list details the various vehicles that have been used by the Space Marines in the entire history of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
This lack of variety in their vehicles befits their standardization and adherence to the Codex Astartes. The Space Marines of the Warhammer 40,000 universe have fewer types of vehicles than the Imperial Guard. Vehicles of the Space Marines (Warhammer 40,000)
