[[Mountain Wolf BattleMechs]] submitted their proposal for the ''Night Hawk'', their first BattleMech, to the [[Star League Defense Force]] in [[Introduction Year::2655]], and after many months of trials, the 'Mech was put into full production in [[2656]]. Production continued for almost 300 years until [[Production Ceased::2945]], when the factory producing the ''Night Hawk'' was destroyed and did not see production again until [[Reintroduction Year::3055]].<ref name=TRO:3058U/><ref name=TRO:3058>''Technical Readout: 3058 Upgrade'', p. 100: "Night Hawk"</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== The ''Night Hawk'' is an impressive [[BattleMech#Light|light]] 'Mech on the modern battlefield, with a top speed of 97.2 km/h that is provided by a [[GM 210 XL]] [[extralight engine]]. For protection from enemy fire, the ''Night Hawk'' has seven tons of [[ProtecTech Light]] armor which can defend it from fire from most other light 'Mechs. Finally, to dissipate the vast amount of heat from its all energy weapons arsenal, the ''Night Hawk'' uses 12 [[double heat sink]]s.<ref name=TRO:3058U/><ref name=TRO:3058/> The ''Night Hawk'' carries an all energy weapons arsenal to allow it to operate in independent, long-term operations. The primary long range weapon on the ''Night Hawk'' is a [[Maxwell (ERLL)|Maxwell]] [[ER large laser]] that is backed up by a [[Defiance B3L]] [[large laser]]. Finally, for close range combat, the ''Night Hawk'' has a [[Defiance P5M]] [[medium pulse laser]].<ref name=TRO:3058U/><ref name=TRO:3058/> ==Variants== *; NTK-2Q-EC : A prototype [[ER medium laser]] is installed in the left arm and an extra half ton of armor protects its [[Golden Century]] [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]] pilots.
