================================================================================================
Overview:
    Despite the sundering of the Federated Commonwealth, the Federated Suns and Lyran Alliance
    still maintain relatively close ties. One manifestation of this closeness is the BRZ-D3, a
    Berserker variant produced by Kallon Industries under license from Defiance. Like many other
    new Davion 'Mechs, the primary purpose of the BRZ-D3 is to strengthen the AFFS and
    reestablish a unique "Davion" style on the battlefield.

Capabilities:
    Like all Berserkers, the BRZ-D3 is designed to be the terror of the battlefield. The ER PPC
    gives it a solid long range punch, and the paired large pulse lasers provide significant
    firepower at medium ranges. The removal of the usual MASC and AMS provided enough tonnage
    for a targeting computer, which helps the Berserker hit targets even at a full run. The
    Guardian ECM Suite remains to protect against advanced targeting and sensor systems. The
    head mounted flamer has been replaced with an ER medium laser, which inflicts more damage at
    a longer range, something designers considered far more frightening than a bit of harmless
    fire. Triple-strength myomer replaces the undependable MASC system to give the BRZ-D3 enough
    speed to bring its hatchet into play, without the risk of the damage caused by a MASC
    failure. The TSM also lets the BRZ-D3 inflict significantly more damage with its hatchet
    than previous variants were capable of.

Deployment:
    As fighting against the Combine tends to be more brutal than against the Confederation, most
    BRZ-D3s are deployed in the Draconis March. As one of the best supplied militias in the
    AFFS, the Addicks Draconis March Militia is the only non-front-line unit to deploy BRZ-D3s.
    The Addicks DMM deploys a reinforced company trained for urban combat, consisting of a lance
    each of Hatchetmen, Nightskies, Axmen, and Berserkers. This company recently distinguished
    itself by crushing an "unauthorized" raid by a Drac heavy company on Towne. Nine of the the
    Combine 'Mechs were salvaged, along with the Nightsky and Hatchetman which were the DMM's
    only disabled 'Mechs. The gun-cam footage of the Militia commander's Berserker decapitating
    the Kuritan commander's Sunder is used by Kallon Industries as an advertisment, along with
    the slogan "Off with his head!"
