==Description==
The '''Black Wolf''' is a [[thirty-second century]], Heavy Class [[battle armor]] which was originally created by [[Clan]] Scientists from both halves of the divided Wolf Clan.  The battle armor began as a joint project between [[Clan Wolf]] and [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]], as part of a means of reunification between the two sundered factions.  However, the reunification the Black Wolf suggested would not come to pass with the later formation of the [[Wolf Empire]] in [[3142]]. One of the Black Wolf's deployments would be during the invasion of [[Tharkad]] in [[3143]], where the suit's use would become a symbol of terror for Clan Wolf-in-Exile's allies in the [[Lyran Commonwealth]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 The Clans'', p. 10 Black Wolf - Background info.</ref>

==Weapons and Equipment==
The Black Wolf is slow, but mobile. The battle armor suit is able to jump as far as it can trot to its closest enemy under its own power. With its [[Heavy Battle Claw]], the battle armor is able to be transported to the front lines by an [[OmniMech]], if needed. The Claw also provides some form of defense, and can be quite damaging to an opponent, at very close ranges. The suit is protected by 385 kg of [[Reactive Armor]], giving it heavy resistance to explosive weaponry such as [[artillery]] and missile fire.

Black Wolf operators are able to switch out whatever weapons and equipment are necessary for a given mission, thanks to its left arm-mounted Modular Weapon Mount. Its weapons can be the [[Inner Sphere]]-built [[Heavy Mortar (Battle Armor)|Heavy Mortar]], the recent Clan-built [[Extended Range Small Pulse Laser|Extended Range Small Pulse Laser]], a [[LB-X (Battle Armor)|Battle Armor-scale LB-X Autocannon]], a single [[Heavy Flamer]], or the [[Man-Portable Plasma Rifle (Battle Armor)|Man-Portable Plasma Rifle]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 The Clans'', pp. 11-12 Black Wolf - Stats.</ref>

==Design Quirks==
The Black Wolf has an [[Equipment Rating]] of F/X-X-F and is subject to the following [[Design Quirk]]:
* [[Non-Standard Parts]]

==Notes==
* With Clan Wolf's move to Lyran and [[Free Worlds League]] space, so has the Black Wolf's manufacturing site moved to [[Stewart]], yet the WiE's manufacturing site continues to produce the suit in their Site 2 factory on [[Arc-Royal]]. It is unknown what became of the Black Wolf's [[W-7 Facilities|W-7 factory]] on [[Weingarten]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 The Clans'', pp. 10-11 Black Wolf - Factory situation.</ref> 
* The Black Wolf was originally conceived by [[WizKids]]' [[MechWarrior: Dark Age|MechWarrior Dark Age Collectable Miniatures]] game as a part of its Battleforce expansion set. The figure for the Black Wolf battle armor would only be used with a [[mercenary]] faction. The battle armor would later adopted by [[Catalyst Game Labs]] and redefined in the tabletop game once the company advanced the franchise's timeline to [[3145]].
