Benefiting from the [[Ghost Bear Dominion]]'s attempt to build bridges with [[Inner Sphere]] manufacturers within its borders, the near-moribund and poorly regarded [[Joint Equipment Systems]] of [[Alshain]] was brought back from the brink of ruin. Producing Clan-grade vehicles for the Bears and export vehicles for Inner Sphere markets, the desperation of the [[Jihad]] only fueled their revival with buyers snapping up even its most disdained products and providing funds to develop the JES II. Produced at JES facilities at Alshain and [[Panpour]] for general sale across the Inner Sphere, the bulk were bought by the Ghost Bear Dominion, [[Federated Suns]] and [[Republic of the Sphere]] to fill out their militia and defensive formations.<ref name="TRO:3085p48+"/>

Despite carrying a [[Guardian ECM Suite]] and [[C3 slave]] to enhance its protection and accuracy when firing from cover, the JES II was similar to the ancient LRM/SRM carriers upon which it is based, its pedestrian ground speed and merely adequate ten and half tons of ArcShield Maxi IV standard armor made it easy prey in a direct confrontation.<ref name="TRO:3085p48+"/>
