Description
Designed by two engineers from Fredonian Industrial Technologies; Gittleman and Abzug, the Anubis was originally designed to compliment the Osiris BattleMech in use by the Federated Suns and turned to Detroit Consolidated MechWorks only after the design was turned down by Achernar BattleMechs. The 'Mech incorporates a large number of advanced technologies that reach the Capellan Confederation's allies in the Magistry of Canopus and Taurian Concordant. The Anubis is built on a weight saving Detriot Type III Endo Steel chassis. The 'Mechs lightweight chassis carries a powerful Ceres Motors 240 XL engine that gives the Anubis a top speed of 129.6 km/h and is covered in a protective skin of five and a half tons of Hellespont Lite Stealth Armor makign the Anubis extremely hard to hit at long range as well as an ECM Suite to protect against advanced electronic warfare systems.
Armament
The Anubis is armed as an effective light fire support 'Mech. Its primary weapons are four Sian/Ceres Jaguar LRM-5 launchers allowing the 'Mech to provide long range fire support for other light 'Mechs. For close combat the Anubis has a Diverse Optics Type ER Small Laser.
