About 6 1/2 tons light on armor and under sinked . If you remove the light ferro fibrous replace it with Endo Composite  IS you can have 2 1/2 tons more standard   armor .

Or a trade off Composite  IS with 2 extra heat sinks and 3 tons of armor  but  internal would have to rearrange  light FF armor crits for 2 HS. 

The first suggestion  adds at a guess  16 points of armor but does nothing to improve  heat balance  and you can use cheaper more available  standard  armor  . Light Ferro fibrous  is so rare you will not be salvaging any from an enemy and have to bring  replacement  armor yourself  . Clan FF is a better logistical  choice .

The second  the Internal structure  takes double damage . But address heat balance.

The alternative is to simply drop the ER-Large Laser and reduce the "energy" weapons to the alibi- 4 M-Laser of the thunder hawk and use more ammo and armor.
14.5t LFF still not the heaviest armor, but I don't think that 4 LBX needs any additional weapons.

It's already 1.5 tons more armor than any cannon ANH, if you need armor on you ANH, you're doing something wrong. Especially one that can actually reach its target ambush in respectable time.

It's serviceable, but it's not "better" than a regular Annihilator.  It's faster, at the cost of C-Bills having engine crits extruding into the side torsos (more fragile, especially with that armor...)
It's already 1.5 tons more armor than any cannon ANH, if you need armor on you ANH, you're doing something wrong. Especially one that can actually reach its target ambush in respectable time.
Both the 1G and 1X Annihilators have thicker armor (296 pts and 304 pts respectively) at around half the price tag.

The cost is mostly down to the engine.  The Lyrans would be A-OK with a 2/3 'mech.  Putting 4 LB-10Xs on a stock ANH could mean simply four more tons of armor... That would be VERY Lyran.

This is true, more armor is lyran, so is more damage...

Way better . Easier to use. All of these have Endurance  issues 5 shots from all LB x s for each type of ammo . Still good . That is why energy  weapons are good .  All Annihilators are artillery  fodder so it would be nice in a city hidden unit scenario  . Only needs to kill 3 TAG mounted hovertanks to break even so hits all the right points and it is cheap .
