==Description==
 
==Description==
When General [[Aleksandr Kerensky]] led most of the [[Star League Defense Force]] into exile in [[2784]], they brought prototypes of the ''[[Clint]]'' [[BattleMech]] with them. After the annihilation of [[Clan Wolverine]], [[Clan Snow Raven]] revisited these prototypes and was able to begin mass-production of the 'Mech in [[2830]] and introduced them in [[2842]]<ref name=MUL>''Master Unit List'', "Clint IIC introduction date"</ref>. They ensured that it kept up with advances in [[Clan]] technology, eventually becoming the design that is now known as the '''''Clint IIC'''''. Production ceased in [[Production Ceased::2917]], and in the late [[thirtieth century]], the Ravens decided to decommission many less-effective designs of all sorts. It seemed fortuitous, then, when [[Clan Blood Spirit]] offered to trade some of their [[WarShip]]s to the Ravens in exchange for ground units. The Ravens were only too happy to get rid of vehicles that were going to be stockpiled anyways, so many ''Clint IIC''s found their way into Clan Blood Spirit, but most of them were subsequently destroyed during the Spirits' conflict with the [[Clan Star Adder|Adders]] and [[Clan Burrock|Burrocks]]. The waning fortunes of the ''Clint IIC'' were reversed in [[Reintroduction Year::3052]], when the Ravens restarted production of the 'Mech to trade to the invading [[Clan]]s for resources from the [[Inner Sphere]].<ref name=TRO3060/>

==Weapons and Equipment==
This speedy medium 'Mech is armed with a [[Type KOV]] [[LB 10-X AC]] and a pair of [[Series 2d]] [[ER medium laser]]s. This makes the ''Clint IIC'' an effective light [['Mech]] killer. It is capable of ranging far beyond supply lines thanks to its four tons of ammunition, though it only uses 10 [[single heat sink]]s and seven tons of [[standard armor]].<ref name=TRO3060/>

==Variants==
*; ''Clint IIC'' 2 : Developed during the [[Jihad]] in [[3073]]<ref name=MUL/>, the ''Clint IIC'' 2 was fitted with an all-energy weapons configuration. The 'Mech mounts five [[medium pulse laser]]s divided amongst its center torso, left torso, and right arm; one in each of the torso locations, and the remaining three in the arm. This variant has been provided eight [[improved jump jet]]s to greatly enhance its mobility in tactical situations. To cope with the new levels of heat, 10 [[double heat sink]]s are used instead of the single versions. Additionally, an [[ECM Suite#Clan Systems|ECM suite]] has been allocated to the head. Lastly, [[ferro-fibrous]] armor now protects the design in place of the original standard armor. BV (2.0) = 1,890<ref>''Record Sheets: 3060 Unabridged'', p. 228, "Clint IIC's Jihad variant".</ref>

===Custom Variants===
*; ''Clint IIC'' 2L "Leia" : Debuted in [[3128]] in [[Noisiel]] and piloted first by [[Natalia Porter]] and then by her daughter [[Carolyn Fischer]], this ''Clint IIC'' 2 upgrade reverses the trend of Clan-modified Inner-Sphere machines. Starting from the Clan-built frame, the variant drops the [[improved jump jet]]s to change the weapon load. It keeps the two [[Clan]] [[ER medium laser]]s and swaps the Clan [[LB 10-X AC]] for a [[large variable speed pulse laser]] and a [[medium re-engineered laser]], mating them all to a Clan [[targeting computer]]. The standard armor is replaced with [[ballistic-reinforced armor]] as well.
