1st things My friend is getting a Valkyrie and a super heavy tank(storm shadow i think) will he be able to field them with his space marines and/or put his SM in them?
2 do things have to be represented on the model?
thanks

No. He can use the Valkyrie in an Imperial guard army and the super heavy in an apocalypse game but neither n a standard SM army in a standard match.
If you agree with your opponent not really (most people are pretty relaxed about it) but it is a good idea to make sure that the model represents the wargear.

Valkyries are an Imperial Guard unit. You have a Space Marine army according to your signature, check your codex and look for a Valkyrie. They aren't in there.

The superheavy tanks are only for Apocalypse, which doesn't have any restrictions on anything. In other words, you could use your Tau and Marines together because it's Apocalypse and nobody would give a damn.

Finanlly, things need to be represented on models, generally. There's a rule of WYSIWYG in 40k that's pretty necessary. Every Marine doesn't need to have a bolt pistol and frag grenades modeled on him, but if you've got a plasma gun, power fist or whatever, that does. You can always proxy and say "this guy has a flamer" or whatever, but that gets confusing.

thanks!
