Description

The Night Hawk was built for use by the Star League Defense Force for hunting down Periphery units that had managed to penetrate the front lines. The 'Mech was built by Mountain Wolf BattleMechs beginning in 2565 and production continued for almost four hundred years until 2945, when the factory producing the Night Hawk was destroyed and did not see production again until 3055. The Night Hawk is an impressive light 'Mech on the modern battlefield with a top speed of 97.2 km/h that is provided by a GM 210 XL 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 twelve double heat sinks.

Armament

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 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.
