The '''Extended LRM''' ('''ELRM''') system was designed by engineers in the [[Federated Commonwealth]] to offset the incredible range advantage of most [[Clan]] weapons. The ELRM pairs a [[LRM 10|standard LRM]] to a booster system that gives the missile more fuel, and thus, more range. Offsetting the range advantage is the fact that the minimum range of the weapon is increased by over 50%, combined with a reduced ammunition capacity and a heavier, bulkier launcher.
