Threshers were first encountered during the Red Legion's assault on [[Earth]] and the [[Last City]], where they would be seen dueling with [[Guardian]] [[Jumpship]]s.<ref name="Rally the Troops">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJLAJVmggt0 '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny 2 – "Rally the Troops" Worldwide Reveal Trailer'']</ref> They would be employed in all the theaters of the war, and even after its end the splintered Legion and Legionless Cabal would continue to field them regularly.

Threshers are used both for strafing runs and for continuous air support. They are armed with a main cannon that fires [[Solar]] explosive rockets, and can also be used for nighttime reconnaissance thanks to their flashlight.

==Gameplay==
Threshers are encountered in many Cabal-related activities. After first flying in, they hover in place in the air, bombarding the players with their rockets. These can be highly lethal, especially on high difficulties. Threshers are also highly resilient, and don't offer a weak spot unlike [[Goliath Tank]]s. However, on many occasions it is not necessary to destroy a Thresher, and they can be ignored to proceed further. When they have to be destroyed, heavy ordnance like a [[Drake Tank]] is usually offered. Alternatively, explosive weapons like [[Rocket Launcher]]s are preferable.
