History[edit]

The Hunter's Den was a DropShip of unspecified type that served as a hospital vessel in Clan Smoke Jaguar, possibly attached to Beta Galaxy as it transported wounded warriors from this formation to Hyner after the Battle of Tukayyid in May 3052.[1]

The onboard facilities were highly sophisticated, allowing major surgery, myomer implants, carbon filament bone reinforcement and the budding of replacement organs.[2] The bulkheads were painted in designation colors to identify the area of the vessel, for example the intensive care unit was painted a dull green color. Such ships appear to have been common in the Smoke Jaguar touman as Trent recalls several visits to such vessels.[3]

Notes[edit]

  • The most famous hospital vessel in the Inner Sphere was the Dove-class DropShip. The Hunter's Den was not such a vessel as the Condor that the Dove is based on was not produced until 2801, and the Dove itself was not produced until after the Fourth Succession War.[4]
