Description
Anderson Propulsion, often simply referred to as Anderson is the OEM designer of a family of Jump Jets. Models of Anderson jump jets are produced by several manufacturers in the Inner Sphere. Anderson is a well known and established name in jump technology.
Standard Jump Jets
Anderson Propulsion standard jump jet designs have been produced in a number of variants. The best known versions are listed below.
Model 12
The model 12 was designed for the FRB-2E Firebee and began production in 2524. Though unremarkable by current standards, the Model 12 allowed the 35 ton Firebee to bound 150 meters at a time, a substantial distance in the era. Production of this design halted when the factory that produced the Firebee was destroyed in the First Succession War.

Model 21
The second entry in the AP line of jump systems, the Model 21 was introduced during the Star League era on the Catapult and Shogun. The Model 21 was subject to a Star League Quartermaster recall in 2566 due to the design being subject to a conduit failure that vented thrust gasses into the `mech's interior spaces. The Anderson Model 25 was the designated replacement system though not all Catapults so equipped were upgraded.[2]

Model 25
Initially designed as a replacement for the recalled Model 21 for installation in the Catapult, the Model 25 was also installed in the Osprey, a niche product by Hollis Incorporated during the Star League era. Initial production of this model likely ceased in 2791 with the destruction of the Catapult production facility.[4] The Word of Blake however commissioned Skobel MechWorks and Achernar BattleMechs in recent years to produce the Osprey in massive numbers and as such this design has seen something of a renaissance. Of note however is that the Achernar complex was destroyed in battle with the Clan Wolf-in-Exile. Additionally, Hollis Incorporated, the original designer of the Osprey, has retooled a (presumably rebuilt) Catapult line to produce the OSP-15E. It seems that what was old is new again.
