Is there some reason its just plain worse than the one with 2 SRM's? Like there must be somethin Im missing, right?

The one with only single missile slot can have up to 10 jumpjets. The one with two missiles slots can equip up to 7 JJs. Only difference.

The original Jenner D and K were similar, 4 E on both but one has 2 M and the other only 1 M. Presumably the IIC mechs will get quirks at some point and the ones that have fewer hardpoints should get some love then.

i'm giving the one with 1M 4 MPL.

10 JJ! 10! That's 75 meters of hops. Not as good as the Spider 5V's 104 meters but hey this can actually carry useful weapons.

Yep. Those 10 jump jets are really useful for SRM poptarting on Tourmaline.

...And precisely how many people will ever equip even 7 jets to begin with?

It's like PGI trying to justify the Spider 5V by giving it 12 JJ slots, because that totally makes up for lost weapon hardpoints...

The worst part, is the CDA-3F can still out jump both the IIC-2 and SDR-5V, using less jump jets to add insult to injury.
