Designed by Skobel MechWorks of [[Terra]], the company created the design as a new hard-hitting attack 'Mech for the regiments of the [[Stone's Brigade]]. Its blend of firepower and armor has individuals comparing the 'Mech with previous designs such as the ''[[Warhammer]]'' and the heavier ''[[Awesome]]'' Assault 'Mech.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 The Republic of the Sphere'', p. 36-37 - 112 LMT-2R ''Lament'' - Background information.</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== The design features a blend of firepower, speed, and balance of armor protection. The heart of the 'Mech is its 325-rated VOX [[extralight fusion engine]], with enough Double Heat Sinks to fire both its main guns with some heat left over. In addition to 15 Double Heat Sinks, the design includes an [[Technology Rating|advanced tech]] [[Radical Heat Sink System]] to flush excess heat from the 'Mech's system. The 'Mech's hull is protected by 12.5 tons of Krupp 205 Light Ferro-Fibrous, giving it enough protection to withstand incoming fire as its pilot focuses on destroying an opponent. To allow for additional equipment, the ''Lament'' features an [[XL Gyro]]. To achieve this 'Mech's principal focus in destroying its enemies, its weapons array is straightforward and to the point. The design's main guns come in the form of a pair of Magna Supernova Heavy Particle Projection Cannons, one per arm. Backing up the main guns is a trio of Diverse Optics Sunfire Extended Medium Lasers, one per side torso and in the head.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 The Republic of the Sphere'', p. 36-37 - 112 LMT-2R ''Lament'' - Stats and weapons the 'Mech comes equipped with</ref><ref>''Record Sheets 3145: Unabridged'', p. 382 - ''LMT-2R Lament''- BV2</ref> ==Variants== *;LMT-2D: Being developed in [[3147]] by the Republic of the Sphere, this variant is based on the LMT-2R. The 2D is an [[Experimental Technology|experimental]] Drone Command Unit. Armed similarly to the 2R, with pairs of Heavy PPCs and ER Medium Lasers. The 2R features [[Angel ECM]], [[Drone Command Console]], and a Radical Heat Sink System. Its hull is protected by 12.5 tons of [[Light Ferro-Fibrous]] armor.

While retaining the Radical Heat Sink System, the 'Mech loses its secondary weapons and receives a single [[Small X-Pulse Laser]] in the right torso. A [[C3 slave unit]] is fitted in the head to allow coordinate its firepower with other C3 lancemates.

The 4RC has four Clan-produced [[Improved Heavy Large Lasers]] in place of three ER PPCs. The 'Mech's Inner Sphere Double Heat Sinks are exchanged for twenty one Clan Double Heat Sinks, while retaining the 3C's C3 slave unit and Radical Heat Sink System.

Heat is dissipated by nineteen Clan spec Double Heat Sinks. It uses a [[Compact Gyro]] for balance, and a C3 slave to share targeting information.
