==Description==

* [[Rhino (Battle Armor)]], the early Clan battle armor
−
Designed in [[2667]], the '''Rhino''' was intended as a more heavily armored version of the ubiquitous [[LRM Carrier]]. While carrying one less 20 tube launcher, the ''Rhino'' is covered in seventeen tons of Pantherskin VII armor, a whopping fifthteen more than a Quik based carrier can boast. However, as the crew members will readily and repeatedly a-test, considerations other than giving the ''Rhino'' heavy armor and long range firepower were secondary. Crew comfort is nonexistent, and notably absent from the ''Rhino'' is a [[Cellular Ammunition Storage Equipment]] system for the missile reloads, a significant drawback given the vehicle is among the slowest military vehicles ever produced.

==Armament==
 
−
Designed to anchor defensive lines, the ''Rhino'' mounts two Delta Dagger-20 [[LRM-20]] launchers alongside a pair Starflash [[Medium Laser]]s in its turret, supported by a single Conan DT-10 [[LRM-10]] mounted forward. Carrying three tons of LRM-20 and a single ton of LRM-10 reloads compares favorably with the standard carrier, while the lasers allow the vehicle some defensive ability while retreating to reload, but the slow speed greatly hampers any retreat once engaged in battle.
