*; CN9-D9 : Built by [[Jalastar Aerospace]] in [[3071]] as a testbed for newer technologies, the D9 modifies the D. It utilizes [[light ferro-fibrous]] armor, and upgrades the amount of protection to the specifications of the D5. It also mounts a [[compact gyro]], though the design does little to utilize the space that is made available. The [[LB 10-X AC]] is replaced with a [[plasma rifle]], which is fed by a two-ton ammo bin. Like the upgrade to the D5, the D9 mounts two [[ER medium laser]]s in the chest and upgrades to [[double heat sink]]s. Perhaps the most notable upgrade, however, is the inclusion of torso-mounted [[jump jet]]s that enable the ''Centurion'' to leap up to 180 meters at a time.  The heavier armor and bulky jump jets gives these ''Centurions'' a heftier look, causing some observers to mistake them for brand-new 'Mechs.<ref name=TRO3050u/> BV (2.0) = 1,638<ref name=MUL77/>

*; CN9-H : Developed by [[Franz Zimmerman]] at the [[Marian Hegemony]]'s first 'Mech production plant in [[3077]], this variant uses "primitive" technology. Though the larger [[primitive engine]] takes up more room than a Succession Wars-era model and the nine tons of [[primitive armor]] don't provide as much protection as the CN9-A model, the [[LB 10-X AC]] and quintet of [[RL-10]]s provide excellent firepower. A single [[medium laser]] rounds out the armament. [[Marian Arms Incorporated]] and the [[Alphard Trading Corporation]] are apparently using this primitive line to boost the Hegemony's technology base. BV (2.0) = 848<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: RetroTech'', p. 5</ref>

*; CN9-H2 : The production version of the Marian Hegemony's primitive ''Centurion'' is built on an [[IndustrialMech]] chassis. It can function as well as a [[Succession Wars]]-era ''Centurion'', but only on planets with a breathable atmosphere because it lacks [[environmental sealing]]. In addition, though it has nine tons of [[industrial armor]], it lacks an [[ejection seat]] and [[CASE]] to protect the ammunition. Like the CN9-H it carries an [[LB 10-X AC]], five [[RL-10]]s, and two [[medium laser]]s. BV (2.0) = 799<ref>''Technical Readout: Irregulars'', p. 45</ref>
