Swampcat

The Swampcat. A radio controlled six wheel amphibious paintball cannon armored tank. Yowsers. And apparently there’s a club of paintball tank players who do this stuff. Who’d a knew?

one of a kind, 1:6 scale custom-built radio control model of a large six wheel drive direct-fire amphibious assault infantry vehicle. This thing shoots paintballs, makes a nice loud turbine engine sound with an onboard CD player and it will have proportional speed control. It was built to be watertight and not just float but actually drive into deep water and cruise along with a pair of counter-rotating propellors.

  • Could this be a new fad of Robo Wars with the whole awesome killing gadgets that cut, chop, spike, and puncture. Paint just seems kind of boring. But then again, what can that gun do?

  • I reckon they should have cameras on board, then the paint guns can effectively ‘blind’ the tank and put it out of action each round. :-)
