We've come up with a new Type 13 Heavy Grav Tank variant, which we are calling the Type 13 MkII.

Instead of the long, large, plasma cannon installed in the turret, this one sports a much shorter, streamlined, rapid-firing blaster/laser cannon:


We hope, like us, you find it to be an attractive model, with a refined, and streamlined look.

It is available in both the AADS (as shown, which stands for the "Active Armor Defense System" installed in the vehicles' hull and turret) and Smooth-hulled variants, for your gaming pleasure.

When ordering, please specify you want the "Type 13 MkII", and whether you want the AADS, or Smooth-hulled model, when ordering the short-barreled vehicle.

Here's a pic of the regular Type 13 Heavy Grav Tank, with the large plasma cannon, for comparison (just refer to it as the "Type 13" when ordering this model):



Note, while similar in overall shape to our very popular Type 9 Light Grav Tank, it is considerably larger, as shown by the photo below (e.g. 10mm longer, and 12mm wider than the Type 9 model):


If you would like more info about this vehicle, or our other Grav Armored models (13 different vehicles, in two hull design types; 26, if you count the AADS and Smooth-hulled variants), please feel free to contact me, at the e-mail address below:

I will be happy to assist you.

Rob,

Any chance of getting another picture of the Type 13 Mk II from a different angle?

I wouldl ove to see a vehicle in this same style that was open-topped like a Hammer's Slammers combat car.

These are almost exact duplicates of Imperial grav tanks from Traveller/Striker.

They look awesome.

Hi artbraune.

Sorry, I don't have any pics from other angles right now, but will see what I can do to provide them in the next few days. Just need to find the camera cable to download them to the PC.

In the interim, if you can imagine them with just the smaller gun, all of the pics of the Type 13 Tanks shown above, with the larger plasma gun (long, large weapon) are on the same hull as the Type 13 MKII, with the shorter weapon. Both use the same hull and turret. The only difference is the shorter weapon.

Same goes for the last pic. The tank on the left is the same, but just has the larger plasma gun shown, instead of the MKII's short weapon.

Here's a pic of the business end of the Type 13 MkII's weapon:


Here's another view of the side, from above, which shows off some of the surface detailing, nicely, as does the photo above:


Here's a link to some of our other vehicle images as well, and I will be adding more in the next few days:
