AC Entei | Flame Emperor[]
Daiji Shinjin's Armored Core, Entei, is a well-rounded tetrapod type, capable of exploiting any weakness and attacking from any range. At a distance, it employs an AM/SRA-217 sniper rifle and AM/LRA-229 laser rifle, while for mid- to close-range combat it uses an AU01 Knave rifle and AM/BRA-224 battle rifle. To supplement its attacks, Entei is also equipped with Su-J-E36 CE missiles.
In Japanese, the AC is called Flame Emperor (炎帝 Entei).

Gameplay[]
Entei is actually not that tough of an opponent as he seems. While he has a diverse range of weapons to engage opponents from any range, his AC lacks the durability needed to survive for long battles, primarily due its lack of TE resistance. It's recommended to engage him at closer ranges as he will then be forced to switch to his rifle and battle rifle, both of which are less dangerous than his sniper rifle and laser rifle. His medium missiles can be easily countered with CIWS as well. Beating him on your end would require close range, rapid fire TE weapons such as Pulse guns, pulse machine guns or pulse cannons.
