Produced [[3082]] on [[Weingarten]], the Carnivore was designed to provide ranged fire support for Clan Wolf troops. When it was designed, the Clan's leadership specified the vehicle must use existing production parts used in other Clan vehicle and 'Mech production to ease cost and construction. After its introduction, it would be traded to neighboring Clans and even Inner Sphere powers for additional supplies and equipment.<ref name="TRO:3085p140+"/> The Carnivore was designed with lessons learned from turbulent realities of the modern battlefield after the Jihad. Clan scientists included a [[Guardian ECM Suite]] as part of the tank means to handle the Inner Sphere's usage of advanced electronic equipment. The Tank uses 15.5 tons of Advanced/3 [[standard armor]] to protect its [[XL fusion engine]] and other vital equipment. The vehicle's ammunition is also protected with [[CASE]].<ref name="TRO:3085p140+"/> == Weapons and Equipment == The vehicle's main weapons are its twin [[Gauss rifle|Gauss rifles]], which are fitted into the turret. The rifles are borrowed from the ''[[Sun Cobra]]'' BattleMech production line. Its secondary weapons for close-in combat include a pair of front-mounted [[Extended-Range Medium Laser|extended range medium lasers]]. Mounted on each of its flanks is a single [[heavy machine gun]] to help handle infantry forces that might pose a threat to it. The tank has four tons of Gauss rifle ammunition and half a ton of machine gun ammo.<ref name="TRO:3085p140+"/> == Variants == *;HAG : After success of the baseline mode, Clan Wolf began producing in [[Introduction Year::3083]]<ref name="MUL2"/> a variant using [[hyper-assault Gauss rifle]] technology.
