Rather than emphasize speed, the ''Kit Fox'' emphasizes armor and firepower, complementary to the role of the ''[[Fire Moth]]''. [[Clan Jade Falcon]] [[Khan]] [[Bret Malthus]] took note of the new design after a string of Cloud Cobra victories, and issued a ''batchall'' to the Cobras, a challenge the Jade Falcons only very narrowly won. [[Clan Snow Raven]] also produces the ''Kit Fox'', which they acquired by trade. All other Clans field the ''Kit Fox'' as ''isorla'', except [[Clan Blood Spirit]], who was gifted the ''Kit Fox'' by the generous (or Machiavellian) Ravens.<ref name=TRO3050U/><ref name=TRO3050/><ref name=TRO3050R/> Often fielded by [[Clan Jade Falcon]], the ''Kit Fox'' has a surprising amount of firepower, with the 10 built-in [[double heat sink]]s sometimes barely able to fully cool the 'Mech down. However, the ''Kit Fox'' is somewhat slow for its weight class, only capable of a top speed of 97.2 km/h, provided by a lightweight 180-rated [[extralight fusion engine]]. Available tonnage is further increased by the use of a lightweight [[endo steel]] chassis, while four tons of [[ferro-fibrous]] armor provide the ''Kit Fox'' with ample protection.<ref name=TRO3050U/><ref name=TRO3050/><ref name=TRO3050R/> Because of Clan Jade Falcon's propensity to utilize this design, the ''Kit Fox'' has become part of a [[Clan Coyote]] adage:<ref>''Technical Readout: 3050 Upgrade'', p. 134</ref> {{Quote|If you see a Falcon not in a ''[[Summoner]]'', ''[[Hellbringer]]'' or ''Kit Fox'', double your caution.}} ==Weapons and Equipment== In its Primary configuration, the ''Kit Fox'' mounts an [[ER large laser]] and [[small pulse laser]] on the left arm as its primary source of firepower. These are supplemented by an [[LB-X AC/5]] for tactical flexibility and a [[Streak SRM-4]] rack for close range combat.<ref name=TRO3050U/><ref name=TRO3050/><ref name=TRO3050R/> ==Alternate Configurations== *; Alternate Configuration A : The A configuration of the ''Kit Fox'' uses a [[Gauss rifle]] as its primary long-range weapon, supported by two [[ER medium laser]]s provide medium and short-range firepower.<ref name=TRCIp20f /> BV (1.0) = 1,218<ref name=CO/>, BV (2.0) = 1,310<ref name=TRO3050U/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3050 Upgrades Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 26</ref> or 1,313<ref name=TRCIp20f /> *; Alternate Configuration B : The B configuration of the ''Kit Fox'' boasts a rapid-fire [[UAC/10]] as its primary weapon, startling considering the 'Mech's tonnage. An [[ER medium laser]], [[ER small laser]], and an [[SRM-6]] rack allow the ''Kit Fox'' B to finish off anything that manages to close ranges<ref name=TRCIp20f />.

Instead, the ''Kit Fox'' C mounts numerous light weapons, equipped with a [[small pulse laser]] and dual [[machine gun]]s; two [[A-Pod]]s provide excellent protection against infantry. While the ''Kit Fox'' C still had a somewhat slow speed, it was far more durable than other scout 'Mechs, and carried an array of three [[anti-missile system]]s and an [[ECM suite]] to further increase its survivability. An [[active probe]] allows for detection of hidden units while scouting and a TAG designator is carried to call down artillery.<ref name=TRCIp20f /> BV (1.0) = 1,195<ref name=CO/>, BV (2.0) = 1,150,<ref name=TRO3050U/> 1,147<ref>''Record Sheets: 3050 Upgrades Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 28</ref> or 1,151<ref name=TRCIp20f /> *; Alternate Configuration D : The ''Kit Fox'' D is configured for indirect fire support, mounting dual [[LRM-15]] racks as well as an [[LRM-5]]. A [[Narc missile beacon]] is also carried, which may be exploited by the ''Kit Fox'' D itself as the targeting systems of Clan LRMs lack a minimum range; this literally allows the ''Kit Fox'' D to run up to an enemy and mark them for increased accuracy and then fall back, firing the entire time.<ref name=TRCIp20f /> BV (1.0) = 1,070<ref name=CO/>, BV (2.0) = 1,142<ref name=TRO3050U/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3050 Upgrades Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 29</ref> or 1,145<ref name=TRCIp20f /> *; Alternate Configuration E : The ''Kit Fox'' E sports the new Advanced Tactical Missile system, mounting an [[ATM-3]] rack which can fire ammunition specifically designed for maximum effectiveness at a certain range. Six added [[jump jet]]s, allowing for a jump capacity of 180 meters, provide the ''Kit Fox'' E with additional mobility and allow it to better exploit the ATM systems, and an [[ER PPC]] provides the high firepower common to the 'Mech; an ER small laser provides point defense.<ref name=TRCIp20f /> BV (1.0) = 1,520<ref name=CO/><ref>''Record Sheets: Upgrades'', p. 51</ref>, BV (2.0) = 1,418<ref name=TRO3050U/> or 1,415<ref name=TRCIp20f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3050 Upgrades Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 30</ref> *; Alternate Configuration F : The F configuration of the ''Kit Fox'' is armed with a powerful [[Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifle 20]], which is capable of delivering large amounts of damage, especially for such a small 'Mech. This is backed up by two [[medium pulse laser]]s for close combat.<ref name=TRCIp20f /> BV (2.0) = 1,219<ref name=TRCIp20f /><ref name=TRO3050U/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3050 Upgrades Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 31</ref> *; Alternate Configuration G : The G configuration is armed with a pair of [[LRM-10]] missile launchers.

The arms, legs, and front of the side torsos are protected by [[modular armor]]. The I configuration is equipped with an engine [[supercharger]], which allows it to reach speeds of slightly more than 100 km/h for brief instances.

The autocannon has two tons of ammunition and the Streak has a single ton of ammunition. Two [[jump jet]]s are in each leg and a single jump jet is installed in each side torso to provide a jump radius of 180 meters.

A [[large pulse laser]] provides the ''Kit Fox'' S with its primary source of firepower. A [[medium pulse laser]] and a [[small pulse laser]] complement this, with a [[Streak SRM-4]] for additional firepower, while dual [[machine guns]] are mounted for anti-[[infantry]] point-defense.<ref name=TRCIp20f /> BV (1.0) = 1,354<ref name=CO/>, BV (2.0) = 1,342<ref name=TRCIp20f /><ref name=TRO3050U/><ref>''Record Sheets: 3050 Upgrades Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 34</ref> *; Alternate Configuration T : Often used for scouting, this configuration carries an [[active probe]] in the right torso, while an engine [[supercharger]] is mounted to provide bursts of speed.
