Image
This is the Tigershark Super Hover Death Tank
Image
It is a heavily armed and armoured Multi terrain heavy assault platform.
Image
Its primary weaponry consists of a heavy rail gun/energy lance hybrid that is capable of smashing through the thickest of armour and the mightiest of shields.
Image
Secondary weaponry consists of two flechette cannons mounted on the sides of the tank.
Image
The tigershark is designed primarily for heavy assault and covert insertions but early prototypes were vulnerable to infantry charges,
but the engineers fixed that little problem with....
Image
BOOM MOUNTED CHAINSAWS!
Image
Yes its as awesome as it sounds the originally juryrigged solution soon became standard on the production type and the crews have never been happier.
Image
As you can see she`s quite tall but that enables more cargo inside.
Image
Here is the main gun turret with the Rail-lance cannon and a Heavy machine gun mounted on the turret.
Image
Yes thats my leg, you can see the little soldier I used to display its height right by the side of the tank.
Image
Here`s a closeup of the machine gun.
Image
It can traverse quite a bit.
Image
Im very happy with how the vents on the back of the turrets turned out.
Image
Heres the Shield generator quite small but reliable.
Image
You can see the flechette cannons on the sides of the tank.
Image
heres the secondary turret its armed with a laser cannon and a missile pack.
Image
Like a baws..
Image
Heres the rear of the secondary turret which is mostly used to fend of aircraft or light spacefighters since the Tigershark is more than capable of operating like an ultra light frigate or escort for larger ships.
Image
closeup of the flechette cannon its primary purpose is to discourage any flanking infantry and covering disembarking troops.
Image
Heres the main cargo area it can hold up to three Goshawk mark IIIs.
Image

Image
The Goshawks exit via magnetic rails built into the floor of the cargo hold.
Image
These particular Gosawks are heavily armed one with a heavy grenade cannon and the other with a HAP-LV descendant machine gun.
Image
walk tall and carry a large stubby exploding bullet spewing stick.
Image
A pair of stretchers can be carried and laid out across the hold for piecing together wounded.
Image
And heres the entrance to the troop hold.
Image
Large amounts of infantry can be carried in here altough proper seating has yes to be installed.
Image
Now to the bridge were the tank is piloted.
Image
there is also here the reactors are located them being the tan topped canisters, four is required to power the Tigerskarks`s impressive arsenal plus its shields and antigravity drives.
Image
The guy at the far back is the commander. he plots course and instructs the others were to fly and what to shoot altough combat is handled by the driver and the gunner.
Image
The driver or pilot flies the tank while the gunner handles the weaponry altough the onboard AI is the one in charge of all the weaponry except the main gun and the turret mounted machin gun.
Image
By now a storm was starting but I held out.
Image
Heres all the hatches and lids open on the Tigershark (you can hold it upside down and nothing will fall of,infact you can hold it pretty much anywere since its incredibly sturdy.
Image
Heres all the crew displaying themself for the camera.
Image
Im quite happy with how the rear turned out especially the rear turret.
Image
Defending a parked a tank agains scavs is no easy job but having built in weaponry certainly makes it easier!
Image
Comparison between Goshawk mark III and the rebel Wasp junk mech.
Image
It fits a fig!
Image
rear view.
Image
side view.

Image
Close up on the Goshawks because they are awesome.
Image
Heres the pursuit tank because rebels in fast moving vehicles can be a nuisance but not anymore!
Image
Front of the Tigershark notice the two blastram which emit a sonic puls when colliding with a wall which causes the wall to crumble easier.
Image
Wallpapers wooo!
Image
The see me hovering they hatin..

My current desktop background.

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I don't think the chainsaws work here too well. I like the idea but they just don't make the grade. Remove them and it gets a gold star for awesome.

EPIC WIN.

Seriously, I love this thing. The weapons are great and inventive, it's just as sleek and deadly as its namesake, and the transport capacity is incredible. You definitely need to show up at Ragnablok. BTW, the rebel mech is neat too.

Gravitating mech shitting rail shooting rebel snuggling armored awesomeness! This thing wreaks of win, its amazing how it is also so playable.

IMO you could reinforce the ram and add another gun, somewhere... btw how many studs long is the "rail area" of the railgun?

Once again, ace build fredde! :boss: 8)

Great presentation of an awesome tank. I like how you show off all the features, one request since you do good editings: how about a "fact sheet", with front and side pics and text with info like stud length, weapons, transport capacity and fluff like independant operating time etc. It'd be cool to have. Infact, I ought to do that myself later on...

The tank is really big and deserves to be a STD. I dig your theme of having transport areas for Goosehawks in your ships and tanks and they all look good.

I saw this and first thought it was a SHIP. Incredible work. :ftw:

I do believe your army is one of my favorites on the whole forum.
