Recognition notes
The Rifleman IIC 9 is a 65-ton sniper that fights at long range, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54 km/h, with a jump capability of 90 metres. Where the 2845 original mounts four Large Pulse Lasers, this variant carries four ER Large Lasers, two in each arm, matched to a targeting computer in the left torso and coolant pods in both arms. The ER Small Laser in the head and the active probe of the base model are absent here, and laser-reflective armor replaces the original's ferro-fibrous plating, with the heat-sink count rising from 19 to 20 double sinks. Anti-aircraft fire control and enhanced communications gear carry over from the original, and Mountain Wolf BattleMechs builds this configuration at Alpheratz.
