CSF-S3cB/LP01 Jericho

Armaments
- 300mm Enhanced HPNC “Jericho’s Call”: An improved version of the 300mm HPNC that was derived from its time as the Cyclops GT. Featuring a shell that serves as a recoil compensator and a muzzle brake, the weapon has been fine tuned for high-explosive ammunition. This meant that the weapon has a slightly slower rate of fire than the normal HPNC, but this has been compensated with two additional rounds in its internal magazine. Bringing the total rounds to five, the weapon itself is perfect for AoE attacks and crowd control. When not in use, it is stored on a rotating joint over the right shoulder.

- Variable Launcher: A weapon cobbled together from several types of Grenade launchers, it consists of a rotating drum with four separate barrels. Each one fires a special round type, each of which can be used in different situations. Going clockwise, it can fire Compact Grenades, Stunlock Grenades, Smoke Grenades, and Flare Grenades. It stores two of each Grenade, and extends its barrel when mounted on the left shoulder. (Launcher Strike-ish)

- Single-Barrel 100mm HAMG: The lack of adequate parts for a twin-HAMG meant that the Jericho is equipped with a single-barrel one. While it does have a lower rate of fire, it has a greater accuracy and better cooling for a longer firing time. It is mounted under the barrel of the 300mm Enhanced HPNC, and is usually one-handed to be fired separately from the latter.

- 80mm Autocannon: Originally designed for the derivatives of the Majestic, this high-caliber forearm gun provides a decent stopping power at close-to-medium range. It is mounted on a sliding rail with a rotary joint, which absorbs recoil and reduces damage done to the arm. When not in use, the weapon rotates backwards on the left forearm, facing towards the shoulder.

- Nanolaminate Expandable Shield: The Jericho is equipped with a pair of Nanolaminate Expandable Shields that have been modified to combine into a larger shield. While still retaining both shields’ sliding gimmick, it allows for the shield to reach the size of a Nanolaminate Riot Shield. When not in use, it is stored via a connection port between the two shields on the left shoulder Sub-Arm.

- Disruptor Grenade: Three disruptor Grenades are mounted on the Jericho’s left skirt armor. They provide a decent amount of explosive damage, though are seldom used due to the Variable Launcher’s more practical use.

- 40mm ASU: The standard weapon used by most Castel GT Units, this weapon is reliable and useful in most situations. When not in use, it is stored on the rear skirt armor.

Special Equipment and Features
- Hi-Sensitivity Targeting Sensor: The same sensor seen on most long-range units, it provides improved accuracy at the cost of some tunnel vision when aiming. When in use, the visor of the Jericho slides down over the eyes, streaming all data from the former.

- Sub-Arm: The Jericho's Second 300mm HPNC was replaced with a sub-arm, allowing for a more versatile range of combat. Using the salvaged weapons and equipment from destroyed Castel GTs, the Jericho can select which ones to use with a quick swap from the sub-arms. Examples include holding the shield, firing the rifle or reloading magazines automatically. When not in use, the sub-arm can partially fold to store a weapon/shield on the left shoulder or fold completely, storing all equipment on the back storage rack.

History
After the Andromedian Remnants successfully captured a LCDM Supply Warehouse, many of the resources stockpiled were sent off to Neptune Base from its relatively close proximity. Because of this, the Cyclops and Juggernaut Ground Types that had been nearly incapacitated in their previous battles now had the necessary resources to be repaired. The stockpile had a number of very rare technology both of Mercury Legion and LCDM origin alike. One of these were the final parts to restore the Centurion Antilockup Type’s Legs, which would be retrofitted onto the machine. The remains of the Cyclops GT’s upper body were affixed to the top of a Centurion ALT’s lower body, with the little functional weaponry it still had being refitted with secondary firing modes.

Trivia
- The Jericho's name was inspired off of the Nuclear Jericho Rocket Launcher from Borderlands 3.
