The fast and hard-hitting Plainsman was a staple of many second-echelon forces throughout the [[Inner Sphere]]. The Plainsman was actually conceived as part of Wolf’s Dragoons' rearmament program of [[3030]]. The Plainsman’s design focus was on reliability and ease of maintenance, so only tried-and-true components were used throughout. The resulting solid design was considered by many to set the benchmark for durability and serviceability in hovertanks.<ref name=TROU>''Technical Readout: 3058 Upgrade'', p. 80</ref>

Besides its reliability, the Plainsman brought considerable speed and punch to the battlefield. Though lightly armored, the tank proved its worth in hundreds of battles throughout the [[Inner Sphere]]. The Earthwerks turbine was known to be bulky and noisy while spooling up.  However, its ability to run for 5,000+ hours with no more than a prayer of thanks for daily maintenance saved considerable man-hours and sweat for service techs across the Inner Sphere.  The Starslab armor dated back to the time of Kerensky, but improvements since then prevent the micro-cracking problems common in earlier versions.
