With a top speed faster than most 'Mechs, the Galleon was well-armed but lacked protection, carrying only three and a half tons of armor. Despite this, the vehicle served well during the [[Amaris Civil War]], and after the [[Operation EXODUS|Exodus]], these tracked vehicles mostly fell into the possession of the [[Draconis Combine]] and the [[Free Worlds League]]. The Galleon is often paired with the [[Harasser]] Missile Platform.{{cn}} ==Weapons and Equipment== The Galleon is armed with a single Jackson Model 17 [[medium laser]] and a pair of Model 12 [[Small Laser]]s. These weapons provide decent firepower for its weight class, enabling the Galleon to worry contemporary 'Mechs of the same tonnage as itself. ==Variants== *; GAL-200 : The -200 replaces the Small Lasers with Machine Guns. This [[2915]] version is utilized by the Draconis Combine, though some have been captured by the [[Lyran Commonwealth]].

Four [[Rocket Launcher 10]]s mounted on the tank's front provide additional firepower. BV (2.0) = 443<ref>''Record Sheets: Operation Klondike'', p. 11</ref> *; GAL-102 : This [[3048]] upgrade uses a [[fusion engine]] to increase the Galleon's top speed to 119 km/h. The medium laser is upgraded to a Priestly 600p [[Medium Pulse Laser]], while the small Model 12s are upgraded to Hellion-V medium lasers. Jolassa 328 [[ferro-fibrous]] armor improved the protection for this tank, while a [[Beagle Active Probe]] enables the Galleon to find hidden units, its also equipped with a [[Maxell 500]] comsys. Production of this model first began in [[3048]]. BV (1.0) = 393, BV (2.0) = 651<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 50</ref> *; GAL-103 : The first of two variants that [[Vicore Industries]] produced starting in [[3066]], the 103 uses an [[XL engine]] for power. The tonnage saved goes to a [[C3i Computer]] and [[Guardian ECM Suite]]. The pulse laser of the 102 is upgraded to an [[ER medium laser]], while the remaining tonnage goes towards more armor.<ref name=TRO58u/> BV (1.0) = 536<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 85</ref>, BV (2.0) = 872<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 52</ref> *; GAL-104 : This [[3066]] variant transforms the Galleon into a fire support tank by removing the weapons and electronics (except for a C3i Computer) to mount an [[ER Large Laser]] linked to a [[Targeting Computer]].<ref name=TRO58u/> BV (1.0) = 484<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 86</ref>, BV (2.0) = 779<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 53</ref> *; Galleon Maxwell : Developed by the [[Maxwell Planetary Defense Consortium]], this Galleon variant uses some [[Experimental Technology]] to improve battlefield performance. The [[Armored Motive System]] protects the tracks, while [[Sponson Turret]]s allow some of the secondary weapons a larger field of fire. Each sponson turret has a [[Small Pulse Laser]] and Machine Gun, while a standard medium laser is in the main turret. A four-ton [[infantry bay]] allows the Galleon to carry a squad of [[battle armor]] equipped troopers. To make room for all this equipment, the Gallon Maxwell uses an [[XL engine]]. BV (2.0) = 451<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Marik'', p. 9</ref> *; GAL-105 : This variant of the Galleon is equipped with a [[Thumper Artillery Cannon]] and ER medium lasers in sponson turrets. It is used to provide fire support for light armored units. To make room for the weapons, armor was sacrificed.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3150'', p. 222</ref> *; GAL-106 : Introduced in 3103, this version of the tank is intended as a scout.

The tank has a 180-rated Standard Fusion Engine that moves it up to 96 km/h and is protected by [[Vehicle Stealth Armor]]. The Sponson turrets of the tank are each armed with [[Magshot Gauss Rifle]]s. The vehicle's long-range weapon mount in its turret is a [[Light AC/5]] with twenty rounds of ammunition. Finally, the tank has been fitted with the required ECM Suite to enable the Stealth System to function.<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan Volume 27'', pp. 6 & 22 - GAL-201 Stealth Tank</ref> *; GAL-300 : Produced by the [[Republic of the Sphere]] starting in 3101. The tank has a 180-rated Light Fusion Engine to allow it to retain the original tank's 96 km/h top speed. Its hull protection is nearly doubled by use of [[Heavy Ferro-Fibrous Armor]]. The Sponson turrets are each armed with ER Small Lasers. The vehicle's main weapon is its turret-mounted [[MML-7|7-tubed Multi-Missile Launcher]].
