Aerial Superiority
The Stormtalon Gunships from this formation have the Infiltrate special rule. In addition, they do not have to deploy in Reserve. If they deploy on the battlefield at the start of the game, then they start the battle in Hover mode.
Pummelled by Fire
If a Stormtalon Gunship from this formation hits an enemy unit in the Shooting phase, then for the remainder of that Shooting phase, all subsequent shooting attacks made against that unit by Tyrannic War Veteran Squads from this formation have the Ignores Cover special rule.
Ignores Cover
Cover saves cannot be taken against Wounds, glancing hits or penetrating hits caused by weapons with the Ignores Cover special rule.
Infiltrate
Units that contain at least one model with this special rule are deployed last, after all other units (friend and foe) have been deployed. If both sides have Infiltrators, the players roll-off and the winner decides who goes first, then alternate deploying these units.

Infiltrators can be set up anywhere on the table that is more than 12" from any enemy unit, as long as no deployed enemy unit can draw line of sight to them. This includes in a building, as long as the building is more than 12" from any enemy unit. Alternatively, they can be set up anywhere on the table more than 18" from any enemy unit, even in plain sight.

If a unit with Infiltrate deploys inside a Dedicated Transport, they may Infiltrate along with their Transport. 

A unit that deploys using these rules cannot charge in their first turn. Having Infiltrate also confers the Outflank special rule to units of Infiltrators that are kept as Reserves.

If a unit has both the Infiltrate and Scout special rule, that unit can deploy as per the Infiltrate special rule and then redeploy as per the Scout special rule.
