==Weapons and Equipment==
The ''Daikyu'' is built around long-range firepower. The primary weapon the 'Mech carries is a [[Lord's Light 2]] [[ER PPC]] backed up by a pair of [[Imperator Automatic Weaponry|Imperator]] [[Ultra autocannon/5]]s. This combination of weapons gives the ''Daikyu'' a devastating long-range punch. The 'Mech also carries a [[LongFire V]] [[LRM-5]] launcher, giving it limited indirect fire support capabilities. For close combat, the ''Daikyu'' carries a single [[Diverse Optics Type 20]] [[medium laser]].

*; DAI-02 : A variant made to address concerns of a lack of short-range firepower, the 02 variant was built soon after [[Operation Bulldog]]. The 'Mech carries a pair of [[Streak SRM-6]] launchers in place of the two Ultra autocannon/5s. Additionally, for close combat, the 02 variant of the ''Daikyu'' has two [[ER medium laser]]s. It is also outfitted with a [[C3 slave]] unit to share targeting information with other friendly units. It also has the addition of [[jump jet]]s, giving it a jumping capacity of 150 meters.

*; DAI-01 ''Daikyu Tabitha'' : Tabitha McBane of [[Lindon's Battalion]] owns a uniquely customized ''Daikyu''. As a minor holovid celebrity on the side, she used her considerable skills and a bit of luck to win a [[Clan]] ER PPC in a televised poker game. She had the weapon fitted in place of the 'Mech's [[Inner Sphere]] ER PPC. She also swapped out the Ultra autocannons for LB-X versions, similar to the 01r variant.
