Image Request for Spartas Hovertank

[ewilen]

I'm willing to cut it some slack but...no, since the Spartas is a one person vehicle, there's no comparison with the Abrams machine gunner. In the latter case you have one man out of four-person crew who is sitting in a vulnerable position; if he's injured, he can be rescued by other people sitting in the same vehicle, and the vehicle as a whole isn't placed at risk by his loss.

What's this about a "cover"?

Have any sketches or designs of it's helocopter mode?

What's this about a "cover"?

HoverTanker at RDF HQ Message Board corrected us as there is no such thing as a cockpit in a tank. Since he is a RL Army tanker, I took the time to correct my usage. So, it has a cover instead of a canopy.

What I meant was, are you saying that the Spartas got a protective shield/roof/cover/canopy at some point?

If there is an ep with the cover on, let me know. I can take a screenshot form the DVD.

Yea, eps. #54 Mind Games in Robotech, eps. #17 BioPsycher in Super Dimensional Cavalry: Southern Cross.

I have caps from the Robotech eps, courtesy of rtsurfer at RDF HQ.

Plus a sketch courtesy of Rob Morgenstern....

I like the Spartan and the Auroran.

They both are extremely cool. They are a nice diversion from the valkries. I love the valkrie design of course.

I have wondered to myself if I could scratch build a transfroming aruroran. I don't think I could do as good of a job as some other people but I sure would have fun trying.
