Being a fan of the German Science Fiction series  for over 15 years now, I wanted to build a model of them multi purpose, all terrain vehicle called "Flugpanzer Shift" for quite a long time. Although there are countless different versions of this vehicle, I preferred the first variant which was published in the late 1960s. I first build a small basic prototype to see, if the typical round cabin could be build. To build the final model,  I took a Revell Leopard II tank chassis and placed a complete new cabin made out of plastic and paper on it.

The flying tank Shift is the general multi-purpose, all terrain vehicle in the -universe. It can be used for research on foreign planets, but it's also an important factor in the Terranian Space Forces, since the armed version is often used for combat missions. It is able to drive, swim, dive, fly in a planetary atmosphere and also usable for short space flights.
There are many different variants of the Shift, most of them are about 10 meters long, 4 meters width (without wings) and 4 meters height. It has a standard crew of 6 and its tops speed is about 500 kph flying and 150 kph on the ground.
Most Shifts are equipped with a 15 meter Periscope (mounted behind the dome), their fixed wings are used to stabilize the vehicle on flights in planetary atmospheres.
A miniature fission reactor installed behind the pilots dome is the power source for all systems and engines on board of the Shift.

The model shows a small attack Shift stationed on the Terranian Flagship Crest II , a Super battleship of the Imperium-Class, during the beginning of the Andromeda Campaign. Unlike the normal Shift it only has a crew of three but has a increased offensive and defensive potential.
