Although not meant for battlefield deployment, there have been occasions when Trojans have been converted into combat vehicles, normally out of desperation. Some examples of these field refits include attaching [[Autocannons]] to provide anti-air defence, bolting on extra armour plates to create an armoured carrier, adding communications equipment to make a specialist comms vehicle, and turning it into an engineering vehicle with [[Mine Sweeper]]s or a light bridge layer. Though it is not permit by the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] the Commanders often dare to modify the Trojan for field needs than to fail in the eyes of their superiors or [[Commissar]]s. Trojans are never as successful as their authentic counterparts, but they often do the job when the alternatives are unavailable.{{Fn|1}}
However , these amphibious vehicles are equipped with a measure of self-defense for delivering supplies and artillery in the heat of battle. This comes in the form of a hull-mounted [[Heavy Bolter]], which in some models is replaced with a [[Heavy Flamer]]. Other modifications include a [[Searchlight]] and [[Smoke Launcher]]s, a [[pintle-mounted]] [[Heavy Stubber]] or [[Storm Bolter]], [[Camo Netting]], [[Dozer Blade]], [[Extra Armour]], even a [[Hunter-Killer Missile]].{{Fn|2}}
There are many variants of the Trojan design used on the battle front. It These can be used as a communication vehicles, ambulances, mobile kitchens and engineering vehicles such as mine sweepers and bridge layers.{{Fn|3}}
