I am looking for any info on development dates for weapons listed the the BMR Revised. I am running a campaign and not all weapons are available right from the start. I would like to be as accurate on the dates as possible. Any help would be great.

DHS ~3034 (?)
clantech 3049 onward
MRM ~3055
sword ~3055
UAC/10 ~3057
ERML&ERSL ~3057
Stealth ~3062
well, more or less look at the pubication dates, every other house book had approx a year or 2 in between gametime wise.
And as running a campaign, you don't really need to worry about all that. Prototypes becoma availlable sooner, and general availlabilty later. If it originates in another house, it might not become availlable at all. If it's a merc campaign, you might as well forget the 3052+ timeline equipment, would take more then a decade to filter through to merc lowlife. And even less chance than a house unit obtaining another houses tech, unless they sold out.
Rather to blow up, then.

3020s, actually.

Modern Clantech appeared in the 2800s and 2900s; it first reached the Inner Sphere c3049, unless you count what the Wolf Dragoons brought with them.
Mercenaries Supplemental 2 lists the introduction of every L2 Inner Sphere weapon on a year-by-year, faction-by-faction basis.

Yup, that is what is quoted in the 25 Year Update Book. It was teams at NAIS that managed to create the new Freezer Heat Sinks that doubled the efficiency of the standard HS, but were three times as bulky. (Naturally, they were working with their own copy of the Helm Memory Core.)

It's not available for free unless you use illegal downloads.
You buy the .pdf and download it from:

Hehe, considered getting a copy today, but decided to hang on to the money for a few more days. If I'd have known that was inside I might have done tho.
3020, would have never guessed. Thought all that happened after 4th SW. But with dvs's participating should have known..

One of the very old Black Widow mission packs faced the Widows off against some NAIS "Super Wasps" and "Super Griffins." These featured DHS.
Apparently, DHS also turned up in the St. Ives Commonality at about the same time, either as independent development or a result of spying. St. Ives was among the first faction to actually field DHS on production mechs.
