Likelihood the Storm Raven is Pre-Heresy?

Hey folks, just wanted some opinions on whether you think the Storm Raven was a Heresy era craft (I've not read the fluff yet for Storm Ravens so if its mentioned apologies). Most novel creations were Pre-Heresy, with Post-Heresy vehicles typically being modifications to existing chassis (Whirlwinds, Vindicators and Razorbacks to name a few). Therefore I reason the Storm Raven was innovated before or during the Heresy and the STC was lost, only to be rediscovered.

 

(Yes I am trying to justify my shiny new Storm Raven kit in Pre-Heresy armies XD)

It doesn't really say either way in the Blood Angels codex. It says that it's STC was discovered at the beginning of the 41st millennium in an adeptus mechanicus vault but suggests it was in use before then.

It could well have been in use towards the end of the Great Crusade but was later limited to use by the Grey Knights or the ability to construt them was lost over time.

 

I've seen a couple of really nice pre-heresy Storm Ravens of late and personally would say go for it mate. :P

Well Brother-Captain Basilus has a rather nice EC one here: http://z15.invisionfree.com/The_Great_Crus...?showtopic=4426

 

And Daemon Forge has a great Ultramarines one that he's working on here where he's replaced the pilot with an Mk III marine and is using FW doors as well: http://s3.zetaboards.com/The_Ammobunker/topic/7415800/5/
