The '''''Deimos''''' is a Clan Assault [[OmniMech]], which was developed by [[Clan Snow Raven]]. The 'Mech was first introduced during the middle of the 3060s, allegedly on the [[Kerensky Cluster]] world of [[Lum]]. However, [[Inner Sphere]] intelligence agencies stopped hearing rumors about the 'Mech during the [[Jihad]] and it faded from memory. In [[3085]], the Snow Ravens revealed the existence of the ''Deimos'' to the Inner Sphere. It was produced on the Clan's Inner Sphere world, [[Dante (system)|Dante]].<ref name="TRO:3085Sp54+">''Technical Readout: 3085 Supplemental'', pp. 54–55: "Deimos"</ref>

The 85-tonner is powered by a Type 255-rated [[extralight fusion engine]], which it shares with the second-line Assault 'Mech, the ''[[Omen]]''. Fourteen [[Double Heat Sinks]] are fitted to mitigate any heat issues that the 'Mech's systems may generate.  Because its top speed is slower than more typical OmniMechs of the same size, engineers installed a [[MASC]] system, which allows the ''Deimos'' to go marginally faster and keep up with comparable older designs. The 'Mech is protected by 14.5 tons of [[standard armor]], where it again differs from more typical contemporaries.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp54+"/>

When it first appeared in the Inner Sphere, the ''Deimos'' was considered the pride of the Clan and at least one was assigned to every cluster within the [[Clan Snow Raven Touman|Snow Raven ''touman'']].<ref name="TRO:3085Sp54+"/>

Aside from its 43-ton equipment capacity, the 'Mech has a few permanently mounted weapons. These include two [[ER Medium Lasers]], one assigned to each of the 'Mech's side torsos. To provide protection from inbound missile fire, an [[anti-missile system]] was mounted in the ''Deimos''' head. The single ton of ammunition for the AMS is located in the center torso.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp54+"/>

The Primary Configuration is geared toward an anti-air role, with both of the OmniMech's arms housing three [[Ultra AC-2|Class 2 Ultra Autocannons]] and a pair of side torso-mounted [[LRM-15|15-tubed Long-Range Missile Launchers]]. Both weapons systems are provided with three tons of ammunition, with the LRM ammunition stored in the side torsos and the AC rounds split between the arms and right side torso.<ref name="TRO:3085Sp54+"/>
