Atlas AS7-K

Overview
The AS7-K is a new production model of the Atlas that sees the return of several Lostech technologies. Tonnage is freed up through the use of a light weight XL Engine. Almost the entire weapons loadout is replaced with one designed for long range fire. Most notable is the Gauss Rifle. While doing slightly less damage than the traditional Autocannon 20, the far superior range more than makes up for it and compliments the range profile of the LRM 20. Additionally, two new ER Large Lasers adds reliable long range punch while two Medium Pulse Lasers add accurate close range punch. Finally, for defense, the AS7-K includes an Anti-Missile System.
