Overview:
    The 5Da variant mainly focuses on increasing knockout forward firepower at the expense of
    heating capabilities. This was achieved with the addition of 6 small lasers, mounted
    throughout the torso. The Autocannon was moved to an arm mount in order to provide a more
    dynamic range of fire and allow space for the additional laser weaponry. In practice the
    mech outperformed the 5D in most scenarios as the additional weaponry proved valuable in
    fights against medium and heavy mechs. The addition of small lasers made the TDR-5Da that
    much more of a dangerous opponent on the battlefield, but the most skilled MechWarrior's
    know better than to close the distance with this array of close-in firepower.
