−	To take advantage of the high heat of New Kent, Steel Viper techs installed low-heat weapons. The main firepower comes arm mounted [[LRM-20]]s with two tons of ammunition each. Once the enemy closes the range, they face a pair of [[Streak SRM-6]]s and an [[Ultra AC/20]] that will quickly breach even the thickest armor. The Streaks share a ton of ammunition and the autocannon has three tons of ammunition. The Streaks are very efficient, but the Ultra AC can quickly run out of ammunition if the pilot isn't careful.	+	To take advantage of the high heat of New Kent, Steel Viper techs installed low-heat weapons.
