==Description==
 
==Description==
The '''''Bishamon''''' is a quad [[BattleMech]] designed by [[Nimakachi Fusion Products Limited]], which uses a mix of advanced construction techniques and advanced weapons systems to both save weight and make it as effective as possible on the battlefield. Officials had approached Nimakachi Fusion after the success of the ''[[Venom]]'' to build a larger design with newer technologies that had been introduced at the time. Nimakachi engineers originally intended for the ''Bishamon'' to have [[jump jet]]s, however with a heavier weapons load the tradeoffs were enough to satisfy [[DCMS]] officials.<ref name=TRO:3060/>

*; BSN-4K : The 4K variant of the ''Bishamon'' is intended to command a C3 lance. In order to accomplish this, the 'Mech has had the [[MRM-20]] launcher downgraded to an [[MRM-10]] launcher, and replaces its two [[ER medium laser]]s with two [[ER small laser]]s.

*; BSN-5KC : Introduced during the [[Jihad]], the BSN-5KC is designed to be a partner to the 4K by featuring a [[C3 slave unit]] in its head. The design retains two of the original [[medium pulse laser]]s in the side torsos, while the [[MRM-20]] is exchanged for a more accurate [[snub-nose PPC]], and a single [[ER medium laser]] has been added to the design to give it more long-range firepower. For defenses, the armor is slightly increased in the rear, while a [[Guardian ECM suite]] is installed to enhance protection from sophisticated weaponry.
