Description
The 6D is a Davion variant of the classic Wolverine that sprung up during the Succession Wars. Upgrading the Autocannon 5 to an Autocannon 10, the WVR-6D can pack a greater punch at a distance. To make room for the added bulk of the AC10, the SRM launcher needed to be removed, and overall armor protection was reduced.

Description
The 7D variant of the Wolverine is a major upgrade to the design introduced by the Federated Suns. The engine was replaced with a XL version and the armor has been upgraded to Ferro-Fibrous material with an extra half-ton added. To increase the Wolverine's speed MASC has been added. Finally, the weapons payload has been upgraded to a Ultra Autocannon/5 and a Medium Pulse Laser. The design retains its jumping capability, as well as the SRM-6, although CASE now protects the SRM reloads.

Description
Another major upgrade of the Wolverine, the 7K model is also built with an XL Engine. The primary weapon is a Large Pulse Laser and a Small Pulse Laser in the right arm which is backed up by a Medium Pulse Laser in the head and two SRM-6 launchers in the left and right torsos with one ton of reloads each. The 'Mech uses thirteen double heat sinks to dissipate the added heat from the laser arsenal. Additionally, the 7K does have jump jets and while still carrying standard armor it increases the amount by one and a half tons for added protection.

Description
The 7M variant of the Wolverine has aspects of both the 7D and the 7K versions but is much closer to the original model. The 'Mech uses an XL engine which is augmented with MASC.

Description
Designed to make use of the Federated Commonwealth's new Thunderbolt missile launchers, the Wolverine-8S was deemed a failure and quietly shuffled off to the mercenary market, where it found modest success. The WVR-8S carries as its primary armament a pair of Thunderbolt-10s with two tons of ammo each. As backup for the Thunderbolts, the -8S carries a pair of Medium Pulse Lasers and a solitary Small Laser.
