Davros' claims to have designed the Daleks' travel machines were later contradicted by the Daleks themselves under the command of the [[Dalek Prime]], who instead claimed that he had stolen the designs from other scientists and then passed them off as his own. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[War of the Daleks (novel)|War of the Daleks]]'') Indeed, in one account, the very first Dalek casings were originally the "[[Dalek War Machine]]s" designed by the scientist [[Yarvelling]] for use in the war against the [[Thal]]s before the mutated Daleks claimed them as protection against the harsh conditions of the devastated, irradiated Skaro.
