{{Mech Description
|Description=Fast, adaptable, with a large weapon payload, this Mech quickly gained the respect of the Inner Sphere on the field of battle.
|Strengths=Deployed to forward areas, the Ryoken presents a considerable threat to advancing enemy units. Able to carry an impressive array of long range [[energy]] weapons for a Medium chassis, it can be deployed with speed to forward areas and makes an effective sniper. [[BAP]] can be used to detect enemy units, and combined with [[Advanced Optics]], the Ryoken makes a quick and capable counter missile unit. The chassis makes a very effective [[NARC]] or [[Artillery Beacon]] unit, having the speed and maneuverability to deeply penetrate enemy defensive perimeters.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref>
|Weaknesses=The prominent arms may be targeted to remove to majority of offensive firepower, resulting is a much less capable unit, and limited to impotent missile operations. The legs are large and vulnerable, without the ability to deploy to fire support positions, the chassis is unimpressive for offensive operations. Missiles can be an effective counter due to its ability to carry [[BAP]], though its lack of [[ECM]] or [[IFF]] limit its capacity for stealthy operations or insurgency actions.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref>
