M6 Variation 1: M6A3 Dark Bushnell
Special Operations modification with composite armor on hip to protect vulnerable joint, twin close-range portable weaponry, anti-personnel 12.7 mm chain guns mounted armament (on head) and modular armor/hard point addition to carry artillery. 25% more power output than original M6 design required retrofitting of main body and condensers. Updated ventronics and revision of software enhances speed of the Dark Bushnell. Piloting efficiently requires veteran AS operators working with this machine, maximal operation of AS has low achievement even by the aforementioned pilots without adequate M6A3 experience. Extremely susceptible to portable artillery and smart mines. Currently regarded as the strongest AS in the West. /li>

M6 Variation 2: Type 96
Found most often in Japan, the chest and legs are well-fitted with armor utilizing new lightweight and durable shielding. Capacity to hold one or two pilots with appropriate cockpit installed. Rifle has a folding stock allowing for optimal portability, and it can be equipped with a large-caliber rocker launcher. Exhaust ports well hidden to protect against infrared-attack, aerial transport due to Japan’s terrain necessitate adequate retainer catch strength modification toward Japanese transport helicopters and Japanese advanced ventronics have been incorporated into the unit. However, Japanese national policy restricts use in battles. Cost: +3 billion yen
