Which variant of the Mongoose is depicted in the picture above the info box? The text for the base MON-66 model says that the weapon loadout consists of 3 medium lasers split between both arms and the center torso (implying 1 laser in each location) and 1 small laser in the head. While most of that fits the picture, you can clearly see that there are two weapons/tubes in his right arm, so, is this picture from a currently not added variant that has 2 lasers - or a (Streak-)SRM-2 - in the right arm or is this picture simply inaccurate?

At first I thought that the 'Mech pictured maybe is a MON-69, given that one has a SRM-2 in an unnamed location, though no laser is dropped there, hence I presume this isn't the case either.

:Hey Sergy, the art is that of the original MON-66 from [[Technical Readout: 2750]], the first appearance of the Mongoose and the second ever TRO published. What this means is that yes the image is a MON-66 and yes early art was still pretty bad and some of the other 'Mechs have even worse problems.--[[User:Dmon|Dmon]] ([[User talk:Dmon|talk]]) 06:31, 1 September 2019 (EDT)
