The Red Corsairs seemed to use [[Inner Sphere]] BattleMech designs refitted with Clan technology. Furthermore, it seems that the entire unit was using energy-based weapons exclusively. This gave them a significant logistical advantage during their campaign, as they had no need to replenish ammunition, and usually simply seized food and other mundane supplies from their targets. The unit's aerospace fighters seemed to be [[Star League]]-era designs, possibly also refitted with Clan weapons.
