Description
The Gladiator Exoskeleton was created for the thrills and chills of the Class 1 fighting circuit on Solaris VII. The Gladiator was Solaris Arms' entry against similar Pit Fighters to get notoriety. The exoskeleton was designed to handle any of a wide array of hand held infantry arms and also heavy melee weaponry for show fights. It is noted for its sturdy and easy maintain design. The suit visually resembles a mechanical knight.
Solaris Arms had hope that by demonstrating their Exoskeleton's capacities in the arena, they would catch the eye of military organizations. They hoped to lure them towards purchasing the design for anti-BattleMech combat applications. However, the general census from the Inner Sphere powers pointed to concentrating their funding into Battle Armor development.
