*'''MkI''' - Derived from the original agricultural tractor STC, this version is cramped, slow and under armed when compared to later models. It was quickly replaced by [[Rhino]]s and [[Predator]]s prior to the adoption of the MkII models. Several variants exist, through none saw widespread service. Some models may still exceptionally be found in the arsenals of some [[Planetary Governor]]s. It has been speculated that the [[Exodite]]s surprisingly possess a few as well, used in their original role as agricultural vehicles.{{Fn|1514}}*'''MkII''' - Considerably improved, this version sported twice the firepower and improved speed due to a more powerful power plant. This is the most common model still in use with the Traitor Legions.{{Fn|1514}}
