Considering the pilots are human, probably a little overboard on the boosters. I'd think you'd be better off keeping the boosters at 2 maybe 3 at the most, and make the rest into reaction mass tanks.

They do bring added reaction mass and thrust, both of which are useful.

However the weapon ports on each pod are actually impacted if they are still intended as missile launchers since the missiles eject out the sides of the pod in those depressions and not out the top or via some pop-up type system (as on the Beta and Destroids with the flip-lids or raised launcher).

Plus the added thrust may be also be a wash if the mounting system can't handle it and will rip free I would think.

Not bad but I think someone already done a modular version of the Tomahawk that can mount the various weapons packages of the other destroids.

Also cool, except for the last one. They all are the very definition of Frankenmechs.

There's nothing special (IMU-wise) about the first two mecha in question. They are nothing more than the Tomahawk w/o the shoulder light and missile pods. And can be seen in "Broken Heart" among the Destroids at the Air Base Skull Team bases from for the raid on Zarkpolis.

The Third image, while it looks IMU-ish might not be. The Tomahawk in the OSM was supposed to have "normal" armed versions IINM.
