Due to its streamlined non-threatening appearance the Horned Owl is well suited for guard duties in civilian areas. This feature is also the reason why this mech is sometimes mistaken for lightweight security mech despite being fully capable military tool.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3055'', p. 118, Peregrine</ref>

* In German products, the unit's proper Clan name was translated to '''Uhu'''. The unit's proper Inner Sphere name was altered to '''Frostfalke''', which literally means ''Frost Falcon''. This was supposedly done to prevent a mix-up with the [[Peregrine (Combat Vehicle)|Peregrine]] VTOL.
