Description

The Fireball was designed to be a fast response 'Mech. The 'Mech is built around a massive DAV 220 fusion engine. This propels the 'Mech at speeds of up to 183.6 kph, which allows the Fireball to respond to a call from anywhere in the line for immediate support. The high speed of the Fireball comes at a price though, as the 'Mech has armor protection of only four tons which cannot stand up to any degree of enemy fire. Additionally, the 'Mech has only limited weapons because of its light weight and extremely high speed.

Armament

The Fireball is armed with a Hovertec Streak SRM-2 as its primary weapon, giving it highly accurate short-range firepower. The 'Mech is also armed with a LFN Lindblad Machine Gun for anti-infantry combat.

Variants

  • ALM-8D - The 8D variant of the Fireball was built with the hope of reducing the Fireballs ammunition dependence as well as increasing its firepower. This is done by removing the Streak SRM-2 launcher and replacing it with two Medium Lasers, vastly increasing the raw firepower of the Fireball. The 'Mech has also received an additional half ton of armor. BV (1.0) = 481, BV (2.0) = 574, cost=3,106,240[2]
  • ALM-9D - The 9D is a compromise between the 7D and 8D models. The 'Mech removes the Machine Gun and its ammunition and replaces them with a Medium Laser. The 'Mech retains its Streak SRM-2 launcher, but gains an additional half ton of armor protection. BV (1.0) = 434, BV (2.0) = 527, cost=3,070,240[3]
  • ALM-10D - This version of the Fireball uses ER lasers instead of the standard versions. A MASC system and Heavy Ferro-Fibrous armor increase protection.[4] BV (2.0) = ????
