*; ''Hydaspes'' 2 : The sole significant variant of note mounts two [[ATM-9]] launchers and a [[heavy large laser]] in each wing, as well as two [[heavy medium laser]]s in the nose all mated to an advanced [[targeting computer]].

*; ''Hydaspes'' 3 : Produced by [[DS Aero Assembly Site Rho]] on [[Twycross]]. This variant of the ''Hydaspes'' trades all the weapons of the standard model for an [[ER PPC]], twin [[improved heavy large laser]]s, a quartet of [[medium pulse laser]]s, and a pair of [[LRM-20]]s with integrated [[Artemis V FCS]]. A nose-mounted [[Laser Anti-Missile System]] protects against incoming fire while 17 tons of [[ferro-aluminum]] armor envelops the craft. To assist the 30 [[double heat sink]]s in handling the high heat output, two [[coolant pod]]s have been mounted.

*; ''Hydaspes'' Algar : This version of the ''Hydaspes'' is used by [[Star Commander]] Algar of [[Clan Snow Raven]]. Based on the ''Hydaspes 2'', this variant removes the [[heavy laser]]s and replaces them with [[ER medium laser]]s to cover the front and rear arcs. The [[ATM-9]] launchers were removed and replaced with larger [[ATM-12]] systems, providing 48 missiles in a single salvo. Six tons of fuel provides enough for combat, but not so much as to be wasteful. BV (1.0) = 3,374<ref>''Record Sheets: Unique Fighters'', p. 10</ref>
