Codenamed "Wolf", the GPM-01 rapidly has become the standard weapon for Mechanized Walker units across the Union military, after entering use in 6292.
The strength of the "Wolf" field walker and its cousin designs, the "Grizzly" support walker and "Kodiak" assault walker, is its use of manipulator "hands" to grasp optional weaponry, which gave them far more versatility and mobility than the the older fixed-weapon mech designs. The older designs have been replaced in front-line use by the Field Walkers, which have been modified and adapted for various kinds of climates and terrains, as well as aerial, orbital, and marine combat.

Specifications:
Model: GPM-01 Combat Field Walker
Height: 20 meters
Dry Weight: 40 tons
Full Weight: 60 tons
Accommodation: 1 pilot, cockpit in upper torso
Armour Materials: boron nitride with diamond coating
Powerplant: micro-tokamak fusion reactor
Fixed Armaments: 2 x 30mm automatic cannons, mounted in head; 1 x 40mm rotary cannon, mounted in torso; 1 x 40mm quad-tube grenade pod, mounted in torso; 6 x missile tube, mounted in shoulder.
Optional Armaments: XB-58-A beam rifle, 2 gigajoule output; MM-71A1 100mm automatic rifle, 100-round drum; MM-80A2 127mm heavy rifle, 50-round drum; MK-44 181mm artillery rifle, 20-round magazine; 500mm recoilless anti-armour weapon, 5-round magazine.

I have drawn two more planes from the world of this map.

The first is another Japanese plane, the Kawanishi Rei-22 "Karyu" (Fire Dragon).

First flown in 1988, introduced into service in 1992, the Rei-22 was a symbol of East Asia's increasing interdependence and co-operation. Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese and Korean companies all worked on the Karyu and its various parts. The Karyu saw service in the air forces of all members of the East Asian Co-prosperity Organisation and several beyond including the Thai air force and the USAF.

The Karyu also served as a symbol for two more important things. Firstly the fact that it was used by the US Air Force showed that the USA was no longer the most technologically advanced allied nation, and that Japan was truly a member of the first world. Secondly, it symbolised the oversized military budget of the Four Nation Alliance (America, Britain, France and Japan) in the face of an increasingly liberal USSR and Eastern Europe.

In 1991 Communist Poland held its first free democratic elections for over 50 years with Soviet blessing. This, for many, was the beginning of the end of the Cold War, and as such the large amount of money spent on the Rei-22 was heavily criticised and seen as unjustified by many.

[Krall]

The second is a plane that I mentioned in the description for the first plane I drew, the Tancho.

This is the British Aircraft Company C2 "Thunder" Carrier aircraft. A fighter-bomber ideal for use on carriers due to its folding wings. First flown in 1971 and introduced into service in 1975, the Thunder was an iconic aircraft of the Royal Air Force for decades to come.

[Krall]

And then I drew another one because I was bored.

This is the Lockheed G054, an iconic and highly advanced American interceptor from the mid-1970s.

[Coen]

And the very last of the lot. I've been wondering whether to make him Russian of Austrian, but I guess the latter fits the atmosphere best. So here he is:

General-Oberst Fritzl von Jenseits der Armee seiner Kaiserlichen und Königlichen Majestät, Otto II, at the ripe age of 74 (Fritzl, that is, not Otto, who was 43 at the time).


Well, that's it folks. Not too many comments, hoped you liked it anyway

[Darkaiz]

This is the top view of an aircraft I'm working on.
I can't deny that I've been inspired by the F-22 Raptor, but please, don't jump to conclusions... I said "inspired" not that I copied it
There are some big differances that I hope you'll notice.

Hope u like it

It's cool!
Most people that don't comment your work probably don't do it because they're afraid of insects... big... insects

but I like your work! It's alternative and that's what this site is all about!
I hope to see more! (would be cool to see you make a bee or a wasp with a crew and bombs and stuff on it that could be thrown down )

VERY NICE

For some reason, I decided to design a rifle...
I know it may not be a functional design (and the mag isn't really functionally designed...), but I concentrated mainly on the estetics on this one
(I will add more details later... I think)

and oh, I haven't named the rifle... yet.

As usual, I hope u like it.

I like the gun, but not your spelling.

Seriously, though, it's good. The magazine is weird, I'd prefer to see it draw so it's actually functional.

Thanks for the comment.

My pleasure, comrade. Now, kneel before the might of soviet air power!

The rifle and the magazine especially remind of a Lee-Enfield No 4.

[Darkaiz]

Well, I made the rifle's mag more "functional" (and more boring )
this is how it looks now...
I'd prefer my 1st version if It would just be the estetics that counted (but that's just me )


And here's another version (again) with a slightly different mag from the one above.
