The ''Shrike'' is outfitted with a powerful [[Targeting Computer]] that allows it to bring accurate firepower to bear on the battlefield. It has a hard-hitting armament that gives the 'Mech a powerful sting in combat at most ranges. A [[Type X "Long Bow"]]  [[LRM-10]]-rack allows pilots to engage enemies at long range, and two [[Type 9]] [[Ultra Autocannon/5]]s are effective against even other assault-class 'Mechs. Lastly, two [[Series 2b]] [[ER Large Laser]]s provide a fairly powerful punch should the other weapon systems deplete their ammunition.

The design owes its large weapon capacity to its [[Endo Steel]] construction and its large 380-rated [[XL engine|Extra-Light Fusion Engine]].  Engineers enhanced the design by adding a [[Partial Wing]], giving the ''Shrike'' extra jump capacity as well as additional cooling abilities under normal atmospheric conditions.<ref>''Technical Readout 3145: The Clans'', pp. 48-49, ''Shrike'' - Weapons and Engineering notes</ref>

*; ''Shrike'' 2: Introduced in [[3115]], the second variant of the ''Shrike'' replaces the ER Large Lasers with [[ER medium laser]]s, which allows the autocannons to be upgraded to pair of [[Ultra AC/10|Ultra Autocannon/10]]s.
