The Shiva is an Inner Sphere heavy variable-sweep wing Aerospace. It's slower and bigger than any other ASF currently in game, though in exchange it mounts heavier armor and more weapons, giving it serious punch to ground and airborne targets. Though unsuitable for dogfighting, the Shiva excels in the role of tactical bomber or air support unit. It is known as well for its deadliness as it is for its tendency to handle similarly to a flying oil tanker. When flying at high speed and altitude, its wings fold back to allow for decreased air resistance.

Roles and Gameplay Hints
Prime
SingleLBX20 and Air SSRM6, backed by 3 Air ERLBL if you get hit in the head and decide to fight enemy ASFs with the least maneuverable plane in the game. Or use those sweet LBX modifiers and Cluster Bombs to attack enemy tanks.
Variant A - "Turbo Kat"
You have that iNARC for that duo of Air LRM10s and 3 Laser Guided Bombs, which gives weight to your flimsy excuses because you are dealing damage and not just wasting space on server, yay! Well done, good for you...
Variant B - "Agent Orange"
The "Agent Orange" is one of the most terrifying enemies in the game in the hands of a capable pilot, able to destroy an entire lance of battlemechs on its own. Twin Air RAC5, twin Air MRM40, and quadruple Bomb (CL) means that it can destroy all but the heaviest mechs in a single pass, or sandblasted the armor off multiple spread-out targets. However, this power comes at a price; it is exceptionally helpless - even by Shiva standards - at defending against enemy aircraft, it struggles to attack fast-moving ground targets, and it requires a long engagement window to fully dish out its damage.
Variant C - "Fujita Five"
Why it's called Fujita Five? Simple, because:and
obviously, what were you thinking?
Variant D
Choosing to fly armed with 2 Air LtGauss, 3 Air ERPPCs and 4 Laser Guided Bomb , just because you are affraid to be shot at? You make me sick, you deserve to be rammed by Sparrowhawk and cry as you tumble to the ground with the most expensive Shiva.
Variant E
Weaker Agent Orange with one less Cluster Bomb. Why do you even bother? Cant aim MRMs? Pathetic...
Variant F
Better than Shiva D i guess. Duo of Air Gauss, two Air ERLBL and 4 High Explosive Bombs) are better than Laser guided ones. Afterall, bombs makes bomber. BHP will help you find victims for the war crimes you are about to commit.
Variant G
Here it is, the most LRMs on single asset, 60 in one salvo to be exact. It have two types of bombs, Laser-Guided Bombs and Cluster Bombs, so your brain wont go numb from using just 2 weapon groups.
History
The Shiva has been available since the first beta version of MWLL and has undergone few changes in its role since then. It has the distinction of being among the first units to receive more than four variants with the release of version 0.3.0.
In 0.9.2 every Shiva received Rear Firing Laser to make its pursuit more difficult for enemy fighters.
Canon
This 85 ton OmniFighter takes its name from the Hindu god of death. The Shiva was designed by the Free Worlds League with help from the Word of Blake, and it was a cutting-edge Aerospace fighter of its time. It was seen operating mainly from carriers, though because of its high maintenance costs it was given only to elite units. Using an XL Engine to save weight rather than speed, though marginally slower than aircraft of a similar mass, the Shiva has the capacity to carry a phenomenal array of weapons with over 50 tons of pod space for weapons and equipment.
