Description
After the Clan invasion, the AFFC was eager to replace the armor forces which had been destroyed. Jalastar Aerospace came forwards with a wheeled design, but administrative problems and technical issues delayed full scale production until 3057.
Armament
The main gun of the Typhoon is a Luxor Devastator-20 autocannon, capable of threatening even the heaviest 'Mechs or vehicles. Also mounted on its turret are a Harpoon-6 SRM launcher, a pair of Holly Streak launchers, and a pair of Sutel Precision Line medium pulse lasers. Another pair of Streak launchers are fixed onto the vehicle's front. A Sutel Precision Line small pulse laser covers the rear of the Typhoon. Finally, a Beagle active probe makes it easier to detect enemies in urban combat situations.
