Description
The King Crab-000b, the Star League's Royal variant, is every bit as powerful as its downgraded cousin, the -0000. Still armed with twin AC/20s, the -000b's double heat sinks and doubled ammo keeps the massive cannons firing far longer and more frequently making the -000b a true terror on the battlefield.

Description
One of the so-called Clanbuster variants during the lead-up to the Battle of Tukayyid, ComStar's techs replaced the twin autocannons with two Gauss Rifles and four tons of ammo in the arms, trading a minor reduction in destructive capacity for greatly increased range. While retaining the LRM launcher the large laser was upgraded to a Large Pulse Laser and two Streak SRM-2s, split between the side torsos with a single ton of reloads each, were added. These changes were accomplished by using an extralight engine in place of the standard model.

Description
The King Crab-002 is a natural extension of the King Crab's combat role: brutal close assault. The AC/20s of the original were upgraded to LB-20X versions with 6 total tons of ammo. All the King Crab's backup weapons were replaced with a pair of Large Pulse Lasers in the right torso. Endo-Steel gives the bonus weight to allow for these improvements and CASE protects both side torso ammo bins. The -002 saw small but regular sales and remained in production through the 3060s.

Description
The King Crab -005 is an upgrade of the downgraded -0000 model that replaces the AC/20s with massive LB-X 20s, while the Large Laser was replaced with an ER model. Cementing the -005's focus on CQC, the LRM-15 was dropped in favor of a pair of Streak SRM-4s, with a C3i computer to round off the -005's role in a Level II.
