−	Built around the MAL-1K ''Mauler'''s [[Endo Steel]] chassis and powered by a massive 360-rated [[extralight fusion engine]], augmented by the inclusion of both [[MASC]] and a [[Supercharger]], the ''Banzai'' is capable of reaching speeds of 100 km/h in brief bursts. Seventeen and half tons of standard armor allow the 'Mech to weather an incredible volume of fire as it advances, while fifteen [[Double Heat Sink]]s ensure the ''Banzai'' is able to fire its ranged weaponry as it closes with its intended target. For the pilot's protection from the 'Mech's booby trap, the ''Banzai'' is equipped with a [[Full-Head Ejection System]].	+	Built around the MAL-1K ''Mauler'''s [[Endo Steel]] chassis and powered by a massive 360 Rated [[Fusion Engine - XL|Extra Light Fusion Engine]], augmented by the inclusion of both [[MASC]] and a [[Supercharger]], the ''Banzai'' is capable of reaching speeds of 100 km/h in brief bursts.

Produced by Luthien Armor Works of [[New Samarkand]] under supervision of [[Mariella Irabu]], and utilizing a mix of [[Inner Sphere]] and [[Clan]] technology while based on the chassis of the ''[[Daboku]]''/''[[Mauler]]'' assault 'Mech, and much like the extensive modification of the ''[[Charger]]'' into the ''[[Hatamoto-Chi]]'', the ''Banzai'' is regarded as a separate new design. Built around the MAL-1K ''Mauler'''s [[Endo Steel]] chassis and powered by a massive 360 Rated [[Fusion Engine - XL|Extra Light Fusion Engine]], augmented by the inclusion of both [[MASC]] and a [[Supercharger]], the ''Banzai'' is capable of reaching speeds of 100 km/h in brief bursts. Seventeen and half tons of standard armor allow the 'Mech to weather an incredible volume of fire as it advances, while fifteen [[Double Heat Sink]]s ensure the ''Banzai'' is able to fire its ranged weaponry as it closes with its intended target. For the pilot's protection from the 'Mech's booby trap, the ''Banzai'' is equipped with a [[Full-Head Ejection System]].

The pilot was killed after its Full-Head Ejection System landed roughly.<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Kurita'', p. 7 Banzai - Brief history of Banzai BattleMech.</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== The ''Banzai''&#39;s weapon loadout is intended to compensate and benefit its incredible speeds by assault 'Mech standards. While originally intended to carry an [[PPC Capacitor]] enhanced [[ER PPC]] in arm, the finished design instead mounts two Clan-tech [[Large Pulse Laser]]s in its right arm supported by two torso-mounted Clan [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s, the [[Pulse Laser]]s allowing the pilot to maintain accuracy while running. A head-mounted Clan-tech [[ER Small Laser]] is added almost as an afterthought. At melee combat range the ''Banzai'' is equipped with a [[Large Vibroblade]] in its left arm, while as its weapon of last resort, the 'Mech has been designed to carry a powerful [[Booby Trap]], which uses the engine's power to cause an explosion to destroy surrounding enemies. This is seen as a spoil-sport device to prevent the 'Mech from being salvaged.<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Kurita'', pp. 7, 20 - Specs for the Banzai.</ref> ==Variants== There are no known variants of the ''Banzai''. ==Design Quirks== The ''Banzai'' has the following [[Design Quirks]]:<ref>[[BattleMech Manual]], p. 90 Battlemech Quirk Table - Banzai Entry.</ref> *[[Stabilized Weapon|Stabilized Weapons (RA Large Pulse Lasers)]] *[[Difficult to Maintain]] *[[Non-Standard Parts]] *[[Prototype]] ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== *''[[BattleMech Manual]]'' *''[[Experimental Technical Readout: Kurita]]'' *''[[Master Unit List]]'' [[Category:'Mechs]] [[Category:BattleMechs|Banzai]] [[Category:90 ton BattleMechs|Banzai]] [[Category:Assault BattleMechs|Banzai]] [[Category:Draconis Combine BattleMechs|Banzai]] [[Category:Melee BattleMechs]]
