Say hello to the tank no one saw coming! GW just upgraded the Lascannon finally with the new Space Marine Primaris Repulsor Executioner!
Warhammer Community just revealed new Tank for the primaris that looks to incorporate new weaponry on top of the existing Repulsor chassis.
New Space Marine Primaris Repulsor Executioner
..you thought the Repulsor was well armed! The Repulsor Executioner is a massive front-line battle tank that marries maneuverability, flexibility and some of the heaviest firepower in the 41st Millennium.
Capable of shredding infantry and armor alike with contemptuous ease, if you’re looking to scrap your opponents’ heaviest units, this is the vehicle for you!
You’ll be able to choose just which form of electric death your Repulsor Executioner is armed with, with a pair of Belisarius Cawl’s latest and deadliest inventions on offer. Want to turn Terminators into bubbling goo? The macro plasma incinerator is the place to start.
Want to blast Daemon Engines back to the stygian pits from whence they came? We heartily recommend the heavy laser destroyer – the lascannon’s bigger, meaner cousin.
And, just in case anyone survives, the Repulsor Executioner has a modest transport capacity, allowing you to disgorge a squad of Primaris Space Marines to finish off anyone with the audacity to stay standing.

Looks like the new repulsor has two main weapon options that both rock. If you have already assembled one of these for your primaris it looks like a simple turret swap may be possible on top of the coupler top armor plate.
Look for the new tank soon as part of what is rumored to be a summer Primaris wave of releases featuring the White Scars.
