Has anyone here considered the Storm Eagle? It has access to a Multi-Melta, 2 TLLC, Missiles, has 20 Transport Capacity and is an Assault Vehicle.

 

...at 50% more than the 'raven.

 

The tankhunter Eagle has 1 S8, 2 S9 and 2 S5 AP4 per turn. The 'raven makes out with a S8, 4 S6 Rending OR 1 S9 and then 2-4 more S8. The 'raven has more firepower in the short term (It can volley the MM and 4 S8 AP2 Stormstrikes) which I find to be invaluable, especially given the life expectancy when you drop to hover mode to assault. It also has a much, much easier time using PotMS due to turreted weapon systems. The Eagle's big advantages are horde killing with the blasts, not an area GK struggle with, higher transport capacity, you should be Deep Striking your Terminators, and lastly an extra hull point. For 100 points...Eh.

You mean 8th edition?

Raverrn kinda nailed why we wouldn't consider it. Storm Eagles are cool in 30k lists because 20-strong Tac squads are a thing. We simply never need that much space, and Ravens already have adequate firepower for their price point.
