==Description==
 
==Description==
A [[Solaris VII]] [[BattleMech]], the '''''Ronin''''' was introduced by [[Solaris Arms]] in the mid-3050s as the SA-RN ''Ronin''. As their entry in the medium range weight class arenas, the original ''Ronin'' was based on a ''[[Centurion (BattleMech)|Centurion]]'' chassis.<ref>''Solaris VII: The Game World'' 'Mech record sheets, p. 14</ref> By using an existing chassis rather than building a custom one, Solaris Arms was able to reduce development time and costs. This design philosophy, pioneered with the ''Ronin'', remains in place today. The 'Mech features balanced speed, armor, and weaponry, making it very popular with the Solaris stables, but it is a rare sight on any other world.<ref name=TRO:3055Up152/>

==Weapons and Equipment==
 
The ''Ronin'' is built on a [[Solaris Arms KL77-Modified]] [[endo steel]] chassis, and is powered by a [[Hermes 250 XL]] [[extralight engine]] that allows the 'Mech to move up to 86.4 km/h. Protection is provided by nine and a half tons of [[StarGuard CIV]] [[ferro-fibrous]] armor.
 
  
The ''Ronin''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s main armament is the [[Sutel Precision Line (LPL)|Sutel Precision Line]] [[large pulse laser]] and a pair of [[Luxor 3R]] [[LRM-10]] launchers fed by two tons of ammunition. These are backed up by a single [[Diverse Optics (ERSL)|Diverse Optics]] [[ER small laser]], a [[claw]], and two [[Solaris Arms "Pepperspray"]] [[M-Pod]]s. The 'Mech's waste heat is managed by the standard 10 [[double heat sink]]s.

*; SA-RN : The original model used four [[Artemis IV FCS]]-guided [[SRM-4]] launchers protected by [[CASE]] instead of the [[LRM-10]] launchers on the SA-RN7. It also sported a prototype [[claw]], lacks the [[ER small laser]], and has slightly less armor. BV (1.0) = ??, BV (2.0) = 1,084<ref>''Record Sheets: 3055 Upgrades Unabridged'', p. 253</ref>
