what the --BLEEEEEEEP-- is a deathspitter

Please answer the question >:(
Ich bin die Verkörperung des Todes!

Im waitng in my cold cell,
When the bell begins to chime,
Reflecting on my past life,
And it doesn't have much time.

Cause at five o'clock,
 they take me to the gallows oooooohhhh!
The sands of time,
for me, are running low!

Well, as you asked so eloquently...

It is a Tyranid bio-weapon that uses the blast template. If you want to know more read the Codex.  :P

The deathspitter comes on the Tyranid warrior sprue, the arms to the deathspitter are on either side of the ripper model on the sprue.  It looks like a slightly smaller barbed strangler.
The Tyranids are the most rapidly evolving race in the galaxy.  They are super-predators destined to hunt all others to extinction.

Ya it just looks like a mini barbed strangler with less of the barbs on it. not as small as a fleshborer or devourer though.

It uses a smaller blast template, but it has an AP value (forget how much), unlke the Strangler.
Onager 
/ˈänəjər
/Noun
An animal of a race of the Asian wild ass (Equus hemionus onager) native to northern Iran.

In other words GW are calling Tau players wild asses for wanting a melee suit option.
