| + | *;''Deimos'' 2 : A non-Omni variant of the ''Deimos'', this design features mainly [[Experimental Technology|Experimental]] equipment. This variant was speculated by [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] intelligence as being based on the original prototype of the ''Deimos''. The 'Mech features the same weapons layout (including the Omni design's permanently mounted weapons) as the Primary Configuration. The ''Deimos''' head-mounted AMS system is exchanged for an experimental [[Laser AMS|Laser version]]. The 'Mech's armor capacity has been reduced to 13 tons, and uses [[Ferro-Fibrous]] instead of standard armor. Its engine is upgraded to a 340-rated XL Fusion, while only equipping ten double heat sinks. Its MASC equipment allows the design to move at speeds reaching 86 km/h.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3085 Supplemental'', p. 54 - Variants.</ref> BV(2.0)= 2,394<ref>''Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 258</ref><br />(Notably, this variant is very similar to the original ''Deimos'' from the fan-made [[MekPak 2]]; however, the [[MekTek]] version as such remains entirely noncanonical.) | ||
