================================================================================================
Overview:
    A proposed update kit for the standard BSW-X1 and BSW-X2 Bushwackers. An extra ton of armor
    is added, and one of the machine guns moved to the right side torso. Both LRM5's are
    upgraded to MML5's. Two double heat sinks are added to deal with the change from an
    Autocannon/10 to a Plasma Rifle. While the proposal was well received, the Lyran command
    instead shifted to upgrading BSW-X1's to the BSW-S2 standard, and the existing BSW-S2's and
    BSW-X2's to the BSW-S2r variants. Still, the BSW-X6E design proposal did see limited use in
    a surprising place - Solaris VII. It was popular for several decades as a mech for
    demonstration matches and clan-tech limited events, with one of the top twenty Class Three
    competitors in 3093 piloting one all the way to an 8th place finish.
