By [[3055]], it was still assigned to the command company, though instead of carrying a [[BattleMech]] battalion like a regular ''Overlord'', the 3055 ''Chieftain'' was assigned to a combined force consisting of 15 'Mechs, two [[aerospace fighter]]s, one [[battle armor]] squad/point (5 individual battle armor troopers), and 5 ground [[vehicle]]s.<ref>''Mercenary's Handbook 3055'', p. 39</ref> This seems to suggest the ''Chieftain'' was either modified or replaced by a differently-configured vessel.
