Description
The Vulcan is lightly armored at only five tons, though this is typically sufficient when facing infantry forces and its narrow profile makes it a harder target to hit. A cruising speed of 64.8 km/h is enhanced with by six jump jets mounted in the rear of the Vulcan's torso, specially vented to reduce heat build-up in the rear, giving it a jumping range of 180 meters.

Description
One of the most common of the Vulcan's early variants, the 5T was introduced a year after the original model debuted. It removes the Autocannon/2 and replaces it with three Maxum medium lasers, using the mass saved to add two additional tons of armor. The majority of the Federated Suns' Vulcans were 5T models.

Description
Designed by Coventry Metal Works as an experimental variant, the Vulcan-6B radically changes the mech's mission profile. Gone are the lasers and support weapons and in their place are four SRM-4s. To get the tonnage for the missiles and their two tons of ammo, CMW had to use a Light Fusion Engine. This did allow for a little extra tonnage in armor. The -6B has the same speed profile as most Vulcans and upgrades the heat dissipation to double head sinks.
