Line 31: While the 'Mech is slower than its predecessor, the ''Dragon II'' was designed with durability in mind. The designers used an Endo-Steel internal structure, which allows the 'Mech to carry its heavy weapons layout. To further the ''Dragon II'''s durability, LAW engineers would add a hard-to-hit [[Compact Gyro]] in place of the larger standard model. The armor protection includes 12.5 tons of Light Ferro-Fibrous Armor with [[CASE II]] protecting the artillery ammo.
