- Depthcharge (Scout Class, 2009)
- Japanese ID number: RA-12
- Depthcharge transforms into a stealth warship that shares a basic shape with the US Lockheed Martin Littoral Combat Ship concept and the Visby Class Corvette currently in service with the Swedish navy. In a departure from both of these designs, Depthcharge's rear helipad is replaced with dual missile racks that become shoulder mounted in robot mode. Ironically, the sculpted details on this mold would greatly decrease the stealth characteristics of an actual ship.
- His official battle mode, which was based upon a concept image by artist Ben Procter, would apparently allow him to transform into robot mode while still on the water and float on large boat-feet.
Notes
- Depthcharge was based upon one of several Transformer concept designs created by artist Ben Procter for the Revenge of the Fallen movie. [1]
