Description
The Jupiter was designed by Clan Jade Falcon to compliment their premier assault, the Turkina during the Jihad. Although not as versatile as the Tukina it was developed from the most common parts available at the time, giving the Jupiter a rugged and easily repaired design that many other designs cannot match. Due to its longevity Jupiters have been spotted in many mercenary and House armies throughout the Inner Sphere.
Armament
Variants
Some models are equipped with a 400 XL power plant and two Pattern J4 Streak SRM-4s at the expense of the Autocannons for a faster speed of 65 km/h.
