== 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>

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+"/>
