The Overlord also possesses a similarity to the Corvus Blackstar in that it maintains two large transport bays outfitted with assault doors intended to make it even easier for Primaris Astartes to rapidly exit the aircraft after it touches down under fire in a combat zone. The aircraft's cockpit sits between the two halves of the double fuselage. It seems to be an evolution of the Thunderhawk and possesses five powerful plasma engines and a twin hull resilient enough to permit an orbital insertion under fire with its precious cargo of Primaris Space Marines. The Overlord is intended to serve a role for the Primaris Space Marines similar to that of the earlier Astartes Stormbird or Thunderhawk, and is capable of powered flight in both the void and in-atmosphere.

It is unknown whether Cawl incorporated recently recovered ancient technology to produce the design, or whether it emerged from his own mind as part of his radical turn towards the former Adeptus Mechanicus heresy known as "innovation." It was manufactured by the forges of Mars as one of the new designs of Adeptus Astartes vehicles and weapons created by Archmagos Dominus Belisarius Cawl. The Overlord is an Imperial aircraft that is used as the primary gunship and assault transport by the forces of the Primaris Space Marines.
