==Description==
The '''''Osiris''''' was essentially modeled after the Clan ''[[Viper (Dragonfly)|Dragonfly]]'' and designed by the same engineers who designed the ''[[Anubis]]''. While the limits of [[Inner Sphere]] technology forced the designers to skimp on the specifications somewhat, the ''Osiris'' does maintain the same speed as the design it is based off of with its powerful [[Pharaoh 240]] [[XL engine]]. The armor and jump capacity are sadly lacking, however, as the ''Osiris'' can only jump half as far as the ''[[Viper (Dragonfly)|Dragonfly]]'' with its four Rawlings 61 [[jump jet]]s, and is armored with four and a half tons of [[StarGuard]] [[ferro-fibrous]]. The ''Osiris'' was designed to be a fast, hit-and-fade style offensive platform and can perform well in that capacity with its awesome speed, although it does appear to rely too heavily on its mobility to protect it from damage.<ref name="TRO:3067p50+">''Technical Readout: 3067'', pp. 50-51, "OSR-3D Osiris"</ref>

== Weapons and Equipment ==
+
==Armament==
The ''Osiris''' primary weapons are its five [[Bright Bloom]] [[ER medium laser]]s, which can dish out a lot of damage very quickly, and are perfect for a [[BattleMech#Light|light]] 'Mech that may be operating far from resupply. The [[Harpoon-6]] [[SRM-6]] gives the 'Mech a supplementary short range punch, while the [[Double-Gun]] [[machine gun]] can quickly deal with unarmored infantry. Pilots do have to be very careful, however, as the 'Mech can overheat rather rapidly if it gets pushed too hard.<ref name="TRO:3067p50+"/>

*; OSR-4D : A variant that was born out of the [[FedCom Civil War]] in [[Introduction Year::3067]]<ref name="MUL2"/>, the 4D drops the [[SRM-6]] and [[machine gun]] in favor of one [[medium pulse laser]] and increased [[jump jet]] capacity, which is now 240 meters.<ref name=TRJp56f /> BV (1.0) = 1,081<ref name="COp127"/>, BV (2.0) = 1,230<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 75</ref><ref name="MUL2">''[http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/4764/osiris-osr-4d/ MUL online entry for the Osiris OSR-4D Osiris]''</ref>

*OSR-4D - A variant that was born out of the [[FedCom Civil War]], the 4D drops the missiles and Machine Gun in favor of one [[Medium Pulse Laser]] and increased [[jump jet]] capacity, which is now 240 meters. BV (1.0) = 1,081<ref>''Combat Operations'', p. 127</ref>, BV (2.0) = ?? <ref>''Record Sheets: 3067'', p. 60</ref>
  
*; OSR-5D : This [[Jihad]]-era variant developed in [[Introduction Year::3081]]<ref name="MUL3"/> drops all the weaponry in favor of a single [[heavy PPC]]. The 'Mech makes room for this by using an [[XL gyro]] and a smaller [[XL engine]], reducing the top speed to approximately 110 km/h. This ''Osiris'' variant has a 210 meter jump capability and is protected by [[light ferro-fibrous]] armor.

===Apocryphal Variants===
 
{{ApocryphalContentStart}}
 
These variants were introduced in various apocryphal sources, and thus far have not appeared in any canonical media.
 
''From [[MechWarrior Online]]:''
 
*; OSR-1V : An [[LRM-5]] with a ton of ammo in the right torso provides long-range fire-support, while the right arm-mounted [[ER medium laser]]s remain; a [[Streak SRM-4]] with a ton of ammo and an [[ER small laser]] provide close-range defense. Armor protection is increased to five tons. <ref name=MWO>''MechWarrior Online - Civil War: Escalation Mech Pack Sale Page''</ref>
 
 
 
*; OSR-2V : This infantry-hunter variant moves the [[ER medium laser]]s to the left arm, while the right arm now mounts two [[flamer]]s, with a third flamer in the center torso. A [[machine gun]] in each side-torso with three tons of ammo rounds off the -2V's weapons. Five and a half tons of armor provides excellent durability.<ref name=MWO/>
 
 
 
*; OSR-1P : A significant departure from the ''Osiris''<nowiki>'</nowiki> usual loadouts, a [[machine gun]] in each arm provides defense against infantry, while an [[SRM-4]] in each side-torso and two center torso mounted [[medium laser]]s provide a powerful close-range punch. A ton of ammo feeds the machine guns, while the SRMs are fed by two tons of ammo.<ref name=MWO/>
 
 
 
*; OSR-SE ''Sekhmet'' : This custom variant mounts a [[heavy machine gun]] and [[ER medium laser]] in each arm, with another laser mounted in the left torso and a [[light PPC]] in the right torso. Two extra [[jump jet]]s are added, allowing the ''Sekhmet'' to jump 180 meters.<ref name=MWO/>

==Design Quirks==
 
The ''Osiris'' has the following [[Design Quirk]]s:<ref>''BattleMech Manual'', p. 93 BattleMech Quirk Table - Osiris Entry.</ref>
 
* [[Directional Torso Mount|Directional Torso Mount (1 CT ER Medium Laser)]]
 
* [[Extended Torso Twist]]
 
 
 
==Related Designs==
 
''[[Dragonfly]]'' - The ''Osiris''' speed and performance was inspired after the Clan's ''Dragonfly'' Omnimech.
 
 
 
== Notes ==
 
The ''Osiris'' was introduced in ''[[MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries|MW4:Mercenaries]]'' its name was chosen by a social media poll.
