Mind you, Forge World have up-gunned it considerably.
Correct, the original Spartan was a conversion in White Dwarf that doubled the transport capacity.

IIRC the fluff was the first Spartans were modification made for to assault a city where the route was blocked by plasma fires.

I wonder if FW is going to do a Sabre, a cannon armed Rhino variant, which was the companion article to the Spartan.
