  • ThunderChild is a heavyweight robot that attempted to enter Series 8 of Robot Wars. It was not selected to take part in the series, although the robot and Team Ironclads had experience in live events prior to applying for the series. The team did not apply for Series 9 due to time constraints. ThunderChild was originally built by Shane Swan of Team S.Tek, who competed in Robot Wars with Trax and Dantomkia. The robot was originally known as Air under Team S.Tek's ownership, but received its current name after being bought by Team ThunderCheese (now Team Ironclads) sometime before January 2015.

abstract
  • ThunderChild is a heavyweight robot that attempted to enter Series 8 of Robot Wars. It was not selected to take part in the series, although the robot and Team Ironclads had experience in live events prior to applying for the series. The team did not apply for Series 9 due to time constraints. ThunderChild was originally built by Shane Swan of Team S.Tek, who competed in Robot Wars with Trax and Dantomkia. The robot was originally known as Air under Team S.Tek's ownership, but received its current name after being bought by Team ThunderCheese (now Team Ironclads) sometime before January 2015. The robot's name and design are inspired by HMS Thunder Child, a fictitious ironclad torpedo ram from H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds, which is destroyed in the novel while protecting refugee ships from Martian fighting machines.
