The Blakists' designs for the 'Mech and a prototype were captured by the [[Allied Coalition]]'s [[Draconis Combine]] force on [[Quentin]] in [[3077]],<ref name="JHS:Tp32+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', pp. 32–33: Quentin Quagmire / Official Update 3 - Fight for Quentin and its final liberation in 3077</ref> and were rushed off to the Draconis Combine's Diplan MechYards, where engineers did not have the resources to put the advanced design into production. After the liberation of [[Terra]] in [[3079]], the Combine would ask aide from the new Terran government to assist with development of the 'Mech. It would be jointly produced by both the [[Republic of the Sphere|Republic]] and Combine, prior to the very end of the Jihad.<ref name="TRO:3085p62+">''Technical Readout: 3085'', pp. 62–63: "NX-80 Nyx"</ref> The design was conceived as a speedy recon 'Mech, with a [[Pitban 300 XL|Pitban 300 XL engine]] allowing it to reach 162 km/h. The design utilizes a [[Beagle active probe]] as part of its role as a scout 'Mech. Its hull is protected by five tons of [[ferro-fibrous]] armor, so it can endure enemy fire long enough to fulfill its mission.<ref name="TRO:3085p62+"/> == Weapons and Equipment == The ''Nyx'' has a pair of arm mounted [[Diverse Optic]]s [[ER medium laser]]s to provide it with moderate long ranged firepower. When the 'Mech closes in, it can bring its [[SRM-6]] and [[Diverse Optics (ERSL)|Diverse Optics]] [[ER small laser]] to bear. The waste heat from the weapons and other equipment is managed by 10 [[double heat sink]]s.<ref name="TRO:3085p62+"/> == Variants == *; NX-80C : A [[House Kurita]] conceived variant introduced in [[Introduction Year::3078]],<ref name="MUL2"/> this version of the ''Nyx'' would employ a [[C3 slave unit]]; to make room for this the [[SRM-6]] would be downgraded to an [[SRM-4]].<ref name=TRJp54f /> BV (2.0) = 874<ref>''Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 90</ref><ref name="MUL2">''[http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/2308/nyx-nx-80c/ MUL online data for the Nyx NX-80C variant]''</ref> *; NX-90 : A proposed variant designed by the [[Word of Blake]] in [[Introduction Year::3080]],<ref name="MUL3"/> this [[Experimental Technology|experimental tech]] version removes the laser weaponry and [[Beagle active probe]] to employ a unique method of attack: a pair of [[Lance (weapon)|BattleMech lances]].
