−	The '''''Sagittaire''''' is built to fight in the confines of an urban battlefield. Weighing in at a massive ninety-five tons, the ''Sagittaire'' started production in mid-[[3063]] and began to trickle out to units clamoring for close combat [['Mech]]s in the midst of the [[FedCom Civil War]]. As a power source, the 'Mech has a [[Pitban 285]] [[XL engine]]. The XL engine saves weight at the cost of survivability and gives the 'Mech a top speed of 54.0 km/h while its mobility is enhanced with three [[HildCo LFT 9-X]] [[jump jet]]s, allowing the 'Mech to jump up to ninety meters. The ''Sagittaire'' has seventeen [[double heat sink]]s to handle its massive heat load, and is protected by eighteen tons of [[Starshield Special Heavy]] armor, allowing the 'Mech to stand up to a great deal of punishment in spite of its engine.	+	The '''''Sagittaire''''' is built to fight in the confines of an urban battlefield.

Weighing in at a massive ninety-five tons, the ''Sagittaire'' started production in mid-[[3063]] and began to trickle out to units clamoring for close combat [['Mech]]s in the midst of the [[FedCom Civil War]]. As a power source, the 'Mech has a [[Pitban 285]] [[XL engine]]. The XL engine saves weight at the cost of survivability and gives the 'Mech a top speed of 54.0 km/h while its mobility is enhanced with three [[HildCo LFT 9-X]] [[jump jet]]s, allowing the 'Mech to jump up to ninety meters. The ''Sagittaire'' has seventeen [[double heat sink]]s to handle its massive heat load, and is protected by eighteen tons of [[tarshield Special Heavy]] armor, allowing the 'Mech to stand up to a great deal of punishment in spite of its engine. In 3079, production of the ''Sagittaire'' had been halted due to the damage inflicted on Robinson Standard BattleWorks during the [[Jihad]].<ref>''Objectives: Federated Suns'', p. 23, No mention of ''Sagittaire'' found.</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== The ''Sagittaire'' has a large and varied arsenal built around energy weapons. For long-range combat, it has a single [[Defiance 1001]] [[ER PPC]]. Once the ''Sagittaire'' gets its opponent in medium to close ranges it can bring its full fury to bear. Its primary weapons are a pair of [[Magna 900P]] [[Large Pulse Laser]]s backed up by five [[Magna 600P]] [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s, two of which are rear-mounted, and finally a single [[Magna 200P]] [[Small Pulse Laser]]. All of these weapons are linked to an advanced [[Targeting Computer]], allowing the ''Sagittaire'' to eviscerate its opponents in close combat. ==Variants== *; SGT-9D : The Medium Pulse Lasers have been traded for [[medium laser]]s but the Small Pulse Laser and ER PPC remain in place. All the other weapons have been replaced by a pair of [[LB 10-X]] autocannons and a [[C3 Master Computer]]. The lighter heat load allowed engineers to remove four double heat sinks. BV (2.0) = 2,064<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 173</ref> *; SGT-10X : This variant uses a [[Light Fusion Engine]] to increase survivability. All the weapons have been removed and replaced with four [[Medium Variable Speed Pulse Laser]]s and two [[Light PPC]]s. Five [[Improved Jump Jet]]s allow the massive ''Sagittaire'' to cover 150 meters, and eighteen double heat sinks keep the pilot cool. BV (2.0) = 1,794<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 174</ref> *; SGT-14D : This variant uses an [[Endo-Composite]] structure and [[Small Cockpit]]. This frees enough weight to replace the weapons with two [[Large Re-Engineered Laser]]s, an [[ ER Large Laser]], three [[Medium Variable Speed Pulse Laser]]s, and a [[Medium X-Pulse Laser]]. A [[C3 Boosted Slave]] is mounted in the head. Fourteen double heat sinks are boosted by a [[Radical Heat Sink System]]. This ''Sagittaire'' can also cover 90 meters in a single jump. BV (2.0) = 1,875<ref>''Record Sheets: 3145 New Tech, New Upgrades'', p. 190</ref> *; SGT-14R: Originally scheduled for deployment by the [[DCMS]], this new model is entering service with the [[AFFS]] after the recapture of [[Robinson]]. A 285-rated [[Light Engine]] is the core of the 14R, which is protected by standard armor built around an [[Endo-Composite]] skeleton. The 14R uses the most modern energy weapons, most of them at [[Clan]]-specification. On the right side, we see a [[Large VSP Laser]], 2 [[ER Medium Laser]]s and a [[Small Pulse Laser]], while the left side features another [[Large VSP Laser]], another [[ER Medium Laser]] and an [[ER PPC]]. To cover the rear, 2 [[Small Pulse Laser]]s are mounted in the center torso and in the head. All of those weapons are linked to a [[Targeting Computer]]. BV (1.0) = ????
