The '''''Procyon''''' is the first [[ProtoMech]] designed and built by [[Clan Coyote]]. After the destruction of [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]], Clan Coyote was one of the first to acquire the ProtoMech technology. As part of the rearmament and development plan instituted by Khan Koga, the Clan's scientists and technicians began working on a new ProtoMech that would eventually become the ''Procyon''. After three years of testing, the ''Procyon'' entered service.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 156</ref>

A pair of ER Small Lasers makes the ''Procyon'' one of the best armed ProtoMechs available. With their ammunition independence and decent range and damage potential, the standard ''Procyon'' can inflict as much damage as an [[Elemental]].
