Hercules HRC-LS-9000 (Julius)

The Hercules HRC-LS-9000 (Julius) is a 70-ton skirmisher that fights at medium range, a 3065 rework of the 3054 original, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Where the original mounts an ER PPC in the right torso and a Streak SRM 2 in the left torso, the Julius drops both and relocates its autocannon there instead, upgrading the right arm's LB 10-X AC into an LB 20-X AC now seated in the right torso. Each arm carries a Medium Laser alongside a Medium Pulse Laser, replacing the single Medium Pulse Laser the original carries in the left arm and the autocannon it carries in the right. CASE lines the left torso, an addition the original lacks there. The rear-facing Small Pulse Lasers in each torso and the Anti-Missile System in the center torso carry over from the 3054 design, and the Julius remains, like the original, a maintenance-intensive machine. Kali Yama Weapons Industries Inc. builds it at Kalidasa.
