The Doctor's TARDIS

The Fifth and Sixth Doctors (who come in well after the tractor beam feat) have both made some pretty massive overhauls to their TARDIS, with the latter's even being roughtly comparable to The Master's newly upgraded TARDIS, which is constantly stated to be far superior in every way, before its generators were improved in The Quantum Archangel.

  • The Doctor had been repairing the TARDIS console which had suffered badly in a recent Cybermen attack. He had assured Tegan that the TARDIS was now even better than new, a claim Tegan viewed with her usual scepticism.
  • It should have been unbeatable: omniscient, omnipotent. But the two TARDISes were holding their own. Both machines had been reworked again and again since their birth in the TARDIS cradles, with countless improvements from countless civilisations. And for the first time since they had both left those same cradles, they were on the same side. The Quantum Archangel was losing. The two TARDISes, fighting as one, broke through the sidereal barrier, knocking the Quantum Archangel away as if she were no more than an irritation, rearranging their apron wakes into whips and knives to keep her at bay.
  • 'It is a time machine,' the Doctor said pointedly. 'However, the Master's TARDIS bears about as much resemblance to the standard Type 40 as mine does.
  • The time ram was taking far longer than he had anticipated; perhaps the Doctor had made a few improvements to his battered old capsule since the Master had last broken into it. But he suspected this had more to do with the Doctor's legendary luck than any technical prowess. No, the results of time rams were as inevitable as death and taxes.
Now for the feat itself. On three occasions The Doctor's TARDIS has heavily damaged Dalek Saucers, and once took a glancing blow from a Dalek Stealth Ship, which are stated to be more powerful than Saucers and can destroy Battle TARDISes

The Doctor also adapts his TARDIS' shields to become immune to Time Torpedoes from Battle TARDISes, something that could previously freeze his TARDIS.

War TARDIS
War TARDISes would recieve an upgrade due to scaling from other TARDISes, however, there's also several feats they have.

Less armored War TARDISes can tank unconcentrated attacks from Dalek Saucers

  • The less-armoured Type 90s and 91s peeled off and dematerialised.
  • 'They're just firing randomly sir -' Shots began to crackle over our shields, but they captains were right. It was sporadic, an afterthought.
Capable of penetrating the shields of Compassion, a Type 102 TARDIS

  • The Doctor snapped his gaze to Fitz briefly, and launched into one of his tooÔÇÉfamiliar monologue lectures. 'We've been forced out of the time vortex by those broadÔÇÉspectrum TucksonÔÇÉJacker pulses —'
  • 'Madness or not, that war TARDIS is not just casting a drift net into the time vortex, now: they've got us on the end of their line and they're reeling us in. If they do hit us with one of those focused strikes of TucksonÔÇÉJacker energy it will incapacitate Compassion and me ― but you, Fitz... you'd be very lucky to survive.'
 
I am closing the thread since it was already accepted in another CRT; I will link the CRT to limit confusion.
