================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Lotus Owl is the first attempt at a LAM by a small company called Lotus Engineering.
    Though a first attempt at a LAM the overall reception has been favorable.

Capabilities:
    Much of the Lotus Owl is made from tried and true components. The chassis itself was taken
    from the aging Phoenix Hawk, though it was reworked and now is fully composite. 4 standard
    LRM launchers with a ton of ammunition for each all mounted on the wings, a head mounted
    extended range medium laser and a light particle projection cannon round out the weapons for
    the mech and a Samsung-Sony targeting and tracking system has provided a surprising delight.

Deployment:
    Oddly there have been none sold and the full production run has for all intents and purposes
    has vanished. The factory that produced the mechs is now an empty shell with a few mostly
    wiped computers left behind. The information contained in this document has been gleaned
    from the computers left behind.

Variants:
    Very little information was found, though there looks like there may be variant with a
    impressive electronics suite
