Designer Notes
The second variation on the Grizzly model, the Rabid Grizzly entered service only a few weeks after the Assault Grizzly. It was developed as a defense line softening unit, as the Assault Grizzly soon proved to be a realitvely easy target for the Colonial Expeditionary Force's GREL supersoldiers. What was needed was a heavy armored Gear that could get in at medium range and keep the supersoldiers' heads down while the assault Gears burst through the defense lines. As with the assault Grizzly, the Rabid Grizzly keeps the basic structure of the standard machine with only a few add-ons and a different weapons layout. The armor was slightly upgraded with additional torso plates, while the wewapons latyout was heavily modified. The M225 heavy autocannon was replaced by an Ankerson G-60 grenade launcher, the TD-67 guided mortar unit by a UBM-100 unguided mortar unit and the two GH-8 rocket packs by a single GH-16 model carrying 36 rockets. An anti-personnel grenade launcher was installed for suppression fire. The GU-10 gatling machinegun, M25 pack gun, and the vibroblade knife remained from the basic Grizzly model.
