New Paper Craft: Classic BattleTech - Devastator Free Mech Paper Model Download

Classic BattleTech - Devastator Free Mech Paper Model DownloadThis mech paper model is Devastator, a Mech from the game Classic BattleTech, the papercraft is created by Yogsolthan. The size of finished model is about 250 (H) x 189 (W) x 121 (D) mm.


General Kerensky himself designed the specifications for the Devastator to make up for perceived flaws in the prototype Titan. However, when Stefan Amaris seized the reigns of the Terran Hegemony, production of the Devastator was stalled until the invasion of Terra, when a mere six prototypes were delivered to the Star League Defense Force. After its deployment in the battle for Terra, the Devastator remained lost to the Inner Sphere for centuries, until troops from the Federated Suns chanced upon the blueprints in a Star League base on the world of Hoff in 3023. A downgraded version of the "Mech was prototyped in 3033 by the NAIS, using technology available at the time. It was not until 3044 that a Devastator appeared that was constructed using the intended technologies (DVS-2); this version was finally put in production by 3048.


The Devastator is powered by a Vlar 300 XL Engine giving it a top speed of 54 km/h. The "Mech is protected by eighteen and a half tons of Durallex Heavy armor and has fourteen double heat sinks to dissipate waste heat. [Source: sarna]

New Paper Craft: Douglas TBD Devastator Torpedo Bomber Free Aircraft Paper Model Download

Douglas TBD Devastator Torpedo Bomber Free Aircraft Paper Model DownloadThis aircraft paper model is a Douglas TBD Devastator, a torpedo bomber of the United States Navy, the papercraft is created by ThaiPaperwork, and the scale is in 1:100.


tHE Douglas TBD Devastator first flew in 1935 and entered service in 1937. At that point, it was the most advanced aircraft flying for the Navy and possibly for any navy in the world. However, the fast pace of aircraft development quickly caught up with it, and by the time of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor the TBD was already outdated.


The Devastator performed well in some early battles, but earned notoriety for its catastrophically poor performance in the Battle of Midway, in which the 41 Devastators launched during the battle produced zero successful torpedo hits and only 6 survived to return to their carriers. Vastly outclassed in both speed and maneuverability by the Mitsubishi Zero fighters they faced, the vast majority of the force was wiped out with little consequence except to distract the Zeros from the much more capable SBD Dauntless dive bombers that eventually sank 4 Japanese carriers and a heavy cruiser. Although a small portion of the Devastator"s dismal performance was later attributed to the many well-documented defects in the US Mark 13 torpedo, the aircraft was immediately withdrawn from frontline service after Midway, being replaced by the Grumman TBF Avenger.
