Those are the official stats from the film, since the Striker Eureka was supposed to be the first type-5 Jaeger built and was the pinnacle of technology available at the time.

Technically the single-pilot Jaeger would be type-6, but as their designed as 'scout' Jaeger they're lighter and faster than their big brothers.

The Shiva has the advantage of having more weapons to make up for its baseline weakness, and the Cataclysm has the heavier armour, enabling it to last longer in battles.

Logical, but it still leaves a number of Jaegers effectively obsolete. Or can I conveniently forget about the stat system?
