The Ultrasaurus is a type of Zoid, a race of mechanical lifeforms from the fictional Zoids universe.
The Ultrasaurus is an Ultrasaurus-type Zoid, created by the Helic Republic, and used during the various wars on Zi.
The Ultrasaurus was part of a combined military project between the Republic and the Guylos Empire, instigated at the same time as the Guardian Force itself, although the Zoid's existence was known to the Republic for roughly ten years prior.

  Ultrasaurus Information
Ultrasaurus is the official name of a dinosaur discovered by Haang Mook Kim in South Korea, but the name was first used in 1979 by Jim Jensen to describe a set of giant dinosaur bones he discovered in the United States.
Jensen published a paper describing his discovery in 1985, but since the name Ultrasaurus was already in use (preoccupied), his discovery was renamed in 1991 to Ultrasauros.
Kim's Ultrasaurus is currently nomen dubium, which means not enough is known about the specimen to formally assign it to a specific family of sauropods.

Jensen's discovery is often set off with quotation marks because of the uncertainty over whether it is really a new genus or just a large Brachiosaurus.
The spelling has been changed, too, to Ultrasauros because there was already a saurpod named Ultrasaurus from the Early Cretaceous of South Korea.

 ULTRASAURUS RED
Ultrasaurus Red is seen in a Tomy official catalog, in 1987 (the photo above), the same year than Red Scavenger and Zabre.
A lot of interrogations were occuring between the Zoidfans, but the conclusion was that this red Ultrasaurus never came out anywhere, and that there was no really hope to have to find one.
An Ultrasaurus Red could be seen on the internet since 2004, this one.

The only problem is that so little of Ultrasauros has been found it is hard to determine exactly what it may have looked like.
Ultrasaurus, Supersaurus and Brachiosaurus have all been used to describe the remains - two bones, a vertebra and a scapulacoracoid.
There are enough subtle differences between similar bones in Brachiosaurus to keep the debate going as to whether it should be a Brachiosaurus species.

Six power blocks of the Ultrasaurus are ready for action and are functioning well to their maximum.
Even though, the power blocks of the Ultrasaurus are independent sources of power they are linked together by via central circuit system, Moonbay tells them to switch the power blocks into a specific order to kick start the seventh power block.

Several doubt that Ultrasaurus is an animal distinct from Brachiosaurus, and few think Jensen's description and naming will stand the test of time.
As more information is known about Ultrasaurus, the estimates are tending towards the low end of the original range of guesses.
Even the Ultrasaurus is plausibly under 100 tons, based on the 20% range of sizes in the original identification.

 Raptor's Nest: Ultrasaurus and Ultrasauros
I remember as a kid that Ultrasaurus (along with Supersaurus) was always depicted as a huge brachiosaur dwarfing even Brachiosaurus.
But it turned out that Kim's Ultrasaurus was something different, and when Jensen wanted to use Ultrasaurus, his first preference, he couldn't because it was 'preoccupied'.
Funnily enough, Kim's Ultrasaurus later became a nomun dubium or a dubious name because there wasn't enough information to assign it to any dinosaur family.

The name "Ultrasaurus" was used informally for the specimen in both popular and technical literature as early as 1979, but remained a nomen nudum until 1985, when Jensen finally published a formal description.
By then, however, the official name Ultrasaurus had been used by Kim for a Korean dinosaur, and Jensen's proposed name was preoccupied.

The former giant’s name was Ultrasaurus, and its remains (part of a shoulder and several vertebrae) had been discovered in the 1970s in a quarry in western Colorado--and nowhere else.
Some paleontologists have always been suspicious of the distinction, particularly since the so-called Ultrasaurus vertebrae were found book-ended between the bones of Supersaurus.
By the time he was through, all of the Ultrasaurus bones had slipped away from the species, so that it no longer existed.

 Were there Dinosaurs in the Bible?
The large sauropods (such as Brachiosaurus, Ultrasaurus, Seismosaurus, or Diplodicus) probably didn't live in marshes, but on the edge of forests where they could feed on pine cones, branches from pine trees, and occasionally rough grasses.
Though, they may have spent much of their time near large bodies of water, it is unlikely they spent any amount of time submerged down in muddy water as some of the earlier scholars of the twentieth century postulated.
And as a side note, Brachiosaurus and Ultrasaurus are two completely different genera -- contrary to what is implied by the statement "Brachiosaurus or 'Ultrasaurus'," which gives the impression that "Ultrasaurus" is the Brachiosaur's nickname.

Fossils and Name: Just a few bones of "Ultrasauros" were found in the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation western Colorado, USA, in 1979, by US paleontologist James A. Jensen (who also discovered Supersaurus in 1972).
Jensen named it Ultrasaurus in 1985 (meaning "Ultra lizard").
It was renamed Ultrasauros machintoshi because there was already another dinosaur named Ultrasaurus (a smaller, early Cretaceous sauropod found in South Korea and named by Haang Mook Kim in 1983).

 Continuing the quest for the biggest dinosaur ever
Discovered in 1972, the supersaurus was the largest ever found, at an estimated 40 metres (130 feet).
But the 15 metre (50-foot) high ultrasaurus - found eight years later - could crane its neck more than 9 metres (30 feet) above supersaurus.
But scientists have taken a second look and surmise that ultrasaurus could be the remains of a huge brachiosaur and supersaurus mixed together.
