Variants:
    The BKX-7D BattleAxe takes the primitive model, and rebuilds it with standard technology of
    the late 2400’s. It has a smaller fusion engine than the 7K model, so it can only reach a
    top speed of 54 kph, and subsequently has a reduced jump range of 90 meters. The mass saved
    from this allowed engineers to mount 3 more heat sinks, a pair of medium lasers and brought
    back the two machine guns fed by a half ton of ammunition. Finally, they mounted an extra
    1.5 tons of armor to the frame, thickening most locations by a small amount. These changes
    still didn’t help save the design from the impressions the older model had already
    imprinted in the minds of many, so sells instead went to the Hammerhands and later the
    Warhammer.
