Alternate Configuration I A Dark Age-era missile boat, the I configuration carries an Artemis V FCS-equipped LRM-15 and two tons of reloads in each arm.Four additional double heat sinks help to keep heat levels manageable. Alternate Configuration H Instead of the pulse lasers common to the other configurations, the Battle Cobra H mounts a pair each of ER large lasers and heavy medium lasers.Alternate Configuration G An incendiary 'Mech, the Battle Cobra G carries a plasma cannon, flamer, and ER medium laser in each arm along with a combined four tons of plasma cannon reloads.Alternate Configuration F A medium-range, jump jet equipped brawler, the F configuration mounts a UAC/5 and single ton of reloads in its right arm, supported by a trio of ER medium lasers in its left.

It is backed up by two medium pulse lasers and one small pulse laser.

Alternate Configuration C The primary weapon of this configuration is an ATM-9, but it lacks sufficient ammunition storage to make full use of the ATM technology.

It mounts twin ER PPCs and small pulse lasers, but it lacks additional heat sinks to cope with the heat generated by the cannons.

Alternate Configuration B A configuration popular with Clan Blood Spirit warriors who use a Battle Cobra.

This armament forces unarmored infantry to be especially wary. It wields four medium pulse lasers and six small pulse lasers.

Alternate Configuration A Configuration A excels at close range with a variety of smaller pulse lasers.

The primary configuration uses a pair of large pulse lasers and small pulse lasers, making it capable of highly accurate fire that is effective against armored and unarmored targets alike. The Battle Cobra makes use of endo steel and ferro-fibrous weight-saving technologies, but uses a standard fusion engine for increased durability. Seeking to fully exploit their new holding's industrial capacity after discovering the defunct ComStar Battle Cobra line, the Falcons restored and upgraded it to Clan standards, highly amused to field a design built, redesigned, and manufactured in turn by three enemies it had vanquished. Ironically one of the Vipers' nemeses, Clan Jade Falcon, would resume its productions decades later in the Inner Sphere during the Dark Age-era following the capture of Arc-Royal. Īs a design built and primarily used by Clan Steel Viper, the Battle Cobra's production facilities in Clan Space would end up being destroyed during the Annihilation of Clan Steel Viper in 3075 on New Kent, fading from use.

Outside the Vipers, the Battle Cobra's relative simplicity would also attract the interest of both Clan Blood Spirit and ComStar, its low cost appealing to the resource-starved Blood Spirits, while ComStar found it an easy base to reverse engineer as the centerpiece of its own OmniMech program. The first of the design saw deployment in 2873, and even though all of its weapon mounts are in the arms, this 'Mech has been in production ever since. Like the Crossbow, the Battle Cobra does not mount fixed jump jets and cannot mount them in their arms - therefore, early Battle Cobras would not be jump capable. Following this, the Battle Cobra prototypes were quickly redesigned to allow similar arm-mounted OmniPods, debuting only a few years later. The Battle Cobra was already in the prototype stages when Clan Steel Viper introduced their first OmniMech, the Crossbow.
