===Rifleman II===
Enough of a radical departure that it isn't just a variant but its own 'Mech model, the Rifleman II was made for the SLDF Royals in 2773. This one becomes an outright Assault 'Mech due to it adding twenty tons of overall mass for a total of 80 tons. Built on an Endo-Steel chassis, protected by 12 tons of Kallon Royalstar armor, and powered by a Pitban 320 extralight fusion engine, the 'Mech was capable of reaching speeds of up to 64 km/h despite its increase in weight. Its loadout, meanwhile, focused on its strength as an anti-aircraft platform: the gunpod-arms had one LB-X Autocannon/10 and Large Pulse Laser each, while the torso had two Medium Lasers. Finally, fourteen double heat sinks and a Beagle Active Probe rounded out the design, as well as an unspecified comms system and targeting/tracking unit that were both presumably on par with the standard Rifleman's.

We don't know much about it, and it has no variants or even images beyond a silhouette, so that's all we have for now.
