A [[Solaris VII]] [[BattleMech]], the '''''Volkh''''' was originally designed by [[Vining Engineering and Salvage Team]] to serve as a testbed for advanced technology. VEST designers used an XXL Engine to provide enough weight savings to mount the heavy armor. To provide bursts of additional speed, they also fitted a Supercharger to the engine. This allows the ''Volkh'' to boost its speed to 97 km/h briefly. This is usually enough to close or evade an opponent.<ref name=TRO3055U146-147/>

For survivability, the ''Volkh'' uses hardened armor and a [[Torso-Mounted Cockpit]]. The nearly eighteen tons of Hardened armor allow the ''Volkh'' to absorb damage that would drop an Assault 'Mech. The ''Volkh'' just keeps coming. MechWarriors who use the ''Volkh'' are more willing to get in close to an opponent, trusting that the heavy armor surrounding the cockpit will protect them from weapons fire.<ref name=TRO3055U146-147/>
