================================================================================================
Variants:
    The CRB-29b Crab is a highly advanced model of this BattleMech equipped only to the Royal
    regiments. Its extralight fusion core allows it to maintain flank speeds of nearly 100 kph;
    while the MASC system grants burst of velocity up to nearly 130 kph. Twelve double heat
    sinks make it 50% more heat efficient, which is necessary as its new weapons add to its heat
    burden. The large lasers have been replaced with snub-nose PPC’s which have a lighter
    impact at their long-range bands, but hit just as hard as the large lasers at their
    medium-range. Where they really sign is their 450 meter short-range where they hit with a
    25% greater impact. The smaller lasers have also been replaced; this time with shorter
    ranges but more accurate pulse lasers. The small pulse laser also give the model some
    authority against conventional infantry.
    Endo-steel internals also allowed the engineers to install a Beagle active probe and
    Guardian ECM suite to give the BattleMech scouting and electronic warfare capabilities.

Not sure I follow?

Did someone else make something similar? There have been so many made recently, that I may not be remembering it.

Or I’m just getting old.

Either are possibilities.

There's a CRB-29 posted by mekkatgirls just before this one was posted. Went the ERPPC route.
