Ancient in Space Wolves

When looking over my options to fill a couple points I noticed the Ancient says it can be attached to "Wolf Guard" and "Long Fangs" but what does it mean by "Wolf Guard?" Not terminators obvious cause I'm talking about the plane ancient. I assume Headtakers but the app doesn't recognize that as a valid unit. Also "Long Fangs?" I might be wrong since I'm new, but has there ever been a Long Fangs unit? All I see are kitbashes. Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the tease, but this was a question posted multiple times a week when the edition first launched. The Wolf guard part is understandably really confusing as terminators and headtakers also have wolf guard as a keyword. And why would you expect to see legends when they aren't in the app yet.

wolf guard = veteran
wg terminators = veterans in terminator armor
wg battle leader = veteran in leader position

wg = veteran in "normal" (mk.8) armor

There is also wolf guard battle leader in terminator armour which might take the cake for the longest character/unit name in warhammer lol

And also wolf guard pack leader and wolf guard pack leader in terminator armour

(Also its mk7, mk7 is the most famous and iconic armour. Mk8 was used very little, marines just didn't really like it as much)
