Description
The Crimson Hawk was originally developed by Clan Blood Spirit in 3073 as a light strike 'Mech. However, due to low resources the Clan needed to trade with Clan Sea Fox in order to keep their BattleMech program afloat, leading to both Clans developing and producing the Crimson Hawk. Much of its mass is geared towards armor and firepower rather than speed, as it was intended for difficult terrain and swarm tactics.[2]
Armament
The Crimson Hawk is armed with a Series 7K and a Series 7J ER Large Laser that allow it to snipe at an enemy from long range while using its jump jets to keep the enemy at distance or to attain an advantageous firing position.[2]
Variants
- Crimson Hawk 2 - Some Clan Blood Spirit variations mounted two Series 4D-2 Heavy Large Lasers for more firepower at the expense of range and some accuracy.[2] BV (1.0) = ??, BV (2.0) = 1,271
- Crimson Hawk 3 - A variant that was being tested by Clan Wolf-in-Exile in 3075, it upgrades the chassis to Endo Steel. The 7K is downgraded to a Series 3K ER Medium Laser. This makes room for improved jump jets, allowing the 'Mech to vault farther and making it more heat-efficient.[2] BV (1.0) = ??, BV (2.0) = 1,029
