Disclaimer: I mean no offence to the Osprey's creator, just have different Aesthetics.
I love the Osprey miniature, it's a shiny meck. The stats I don't like so much, so I decided to build my own, to match the art.
First is what I call the 2750 version. I tried to match the art, the TAG is that hole over the cockpit, and assume that the three ports on the left and right represent the SRM 6 and the Artemis IV. Fluffwise, it fires three missiles out of the same two tubes, kind of like the Atlas LRM 20. It keeps the fluff of being an escort for things like Catapults, with a direct fire punch, SRMs for in close, and twin SPLs for infantry. The Beagle keeps the surprises down.

Next is the 'Royal' version. Cost is no object for the SLDF, of course, so it's faster and stronger. The Snubbie version is below, prior to that, replace the snubbie with the ER large laser and mount a heat sink in the left torso.

As tech degraded, the low tech version would appear. The ammo feed for the machine guns would be complex, and it runs hot, but it does the same job as the original. Well if it doesn't get ambushed.

Finally, the spurt of invention opens up new possibilties. Twin MML3s give long and short range stings, and the jump capability means that it can get ahead of the support units it escorts.
