Grendel (Mongrel) J

The Grendel (Mongrel) J is a 45-ton striker that fights close in, cruising at 76 km/h and topping out near 119, with a 210-metre jump. Where the Prime configuration carries an ER Medium Laser and ER Large Laser with an ER Small Laser in the right arm, this configuration mounts an Improved Heavy Small Laser in the left arm and pairs of Streak SRM 6 racks in the right arm and both torsos, alongside a single Streak SRM 6 already found in the right torso. The head weapon changes from an ER Medium Laser to an ER Small Pulse Laser, and the heat-sink count drops from 12 to 10 double heat sinks. The frame keeps its rugged, field-serviceable build, and Arcadia BattleMech Plant CM-T15 produces it at Arcadia, with additional lines elsewhere.
