New Paper Craft: Mass Effect - M-44 Hammerhead Infantry Fighting Vehicle Free Paper Model Download

This paper model is a M-44 Hammerhead, an infantry fighting vehicle that hovers over the battlefield at up to 120 kilometers an hour, based on the game Mass Effect, the papercraft is created by ThunderChild. The M-44 Hammerhead most likely follows a theme of naming armored vehicles after sharks, just like the M35 Mako.

The Hammerhead was released as part of the Firewalker DLC pack, which also included five new missions featuring the vehicle, and which was made available exclusively through the Cerberus Network on March 23, 2010, free to download for all Cerberus Network members. The Hammerhead is also included in Overlord for use in that pack's missions.

The Hammerhead can seat at least three crew members at a time. It incorporates an onboard VI system that monitors the environment for dangers and alerts the crew. An integrated mineral collection system allows the Hammerhead to retrieve any resources it finds during a mission. Like the Mako, it is capable of being air-dropped from a frigate and of propelling itself vertically to scale obstacles by means of hoverjets. But continuous exertion of the Hammerhead's hoverjets will overheat them, rendering them useful only for short hops. The Hammerhead also incorporates a boost feature that allows the vehicle to move quickly across the battlefield. If the boost and hoverjets are used simultaneously, the hoverjets will overheat quicker and not cool until the boost is released.

The Hammerhead is armed with a single gun which can only swivel vertically, but it compensates for this by boasting a fairly high rate of fire and a guided missile system that ensures accuracy even during aggressive maneuvering. Despite its formidable weaponry and design, the vehicle lacks onboard kinetic barriers, making it vulnerable to sustained enemy fire. This problem is somewhat mitigated by the Hammerhead's sophisticated repair system which automatically restores the vehicle's integrity if no damage is taken for a brief period of time. Nevertheless, the Hammerhead's vulnerability forces its driver to maneuver constantly out of the line of fire in order to prevent major damage. [Source: wikia]
