Interchangeable Weaponry is a system where a robot can be modified between battles, allowing the team to change its weaponry. The Robot Wars technical rules allow this, as long as;
* The weapons did not push the robot over the weight, height and width restrictions.
* The weapons were offensive additions rather than defensive additions.
* The team declared all the weapons they could use before the tournament.

| - Interchangeable Weaponry is a system where a robot can be modified between battles, allowing the team to change its weaponry. The Robot Wars technical rules allow this, as long as;
* The weapons did not push the robot over the weight, height and width restrictions.
* The weapons were offensive additions rather than defensive additions.
* The team declared all the weapons they could use before the tournament. The first robots to use interchangeable weaponry on the show were Roadblock, which had interchangeable blades for their rear saw weapon, Killertron, with its double-headed pickaxe and unused mace weapon, and Shogun, which had side spikes which were interchangeable with spikes of different sizes. All three robots first appeared in the first ever episode, Heat A of Series 1. The most successful robot to use interchangeable weaponry is Series 6 champion Tornado, which relied on a variety of different weapons - including a spinning drum, a scoop and an 'anti-crusher weapon' - to succeed in later series.
