================================================================================================
Overview:
    The first mech from a division of Luthien Armor Works catered specifically for the foreign
    market, the Daikyu (Arrow for the FWL) is designed to be a showcase for the Leagues' current
    iconic weapon combined with a new Draconis toy to make for an attractive package.

Capabilities:
    The original Daikyu was a mobile sniper with this model throwing away the mobile aspect to
    create a truly effective and unique sniping platform.
    
    Both autocannons are replaced by a pair of light gauss rifles providing a consistently
    harder punch at a whopping 25% increase in range with more ammo for greater endurance.
    
    The ER PPC was replaced with a head-capping Heavy PPC, providing the user with access to the
    DCMS new toy.
    
    With the unfortunate drop from a 350 XL to a 280 engine, the single Medium Laser is upgraded
    and tripled to 3 ER Medium Lasers. This provides consistent short range support to use
    against the enemies destined to catch up with it.
    
    Thankfuly one last measure was upgraded, adding a half ton of armor and switching the
    composites to the new light ferro fibrous, adds a considerable amount of protection.

Deployment:
    The first run and slated second production were purchased by the League, and the procurement
    of the DCMS is jealous. Part of the reason is because of its effectiveness but the main
    cause is due to the fact that this new variant is well over 2 million c-bills cheaper than
    the original.
