Description
The Grand Dragon is the successful follow-up to the Dragon 'Mech. The 'Mech is built to engage an enemy at long range with a low ammunition dependence. The 'Mech is capable of reaching ground speeds of up to 97.2 kph. The 'Mech is also equipped with Double Heat Sinks to dissipate the large amounts of heat produced by its impressive weapons array and is armored with ten tons of armor.
Armament
The Grand Dragon carries a Lord's Light 2 ER PPC as its primary weapon. The ER PPC is backed up by a Telos DecaCluster LRM 10 which gives the 'Mech an impressive and formidable long-range striking capability. If a 'Mech gets into close ranges, the 'Mech carries three Victory 23R Medium Lasers for defense.
