Main version:

        BattleTech Vehicle Technical Readout

Cruise Speed:  97.2 km/h
Maximum Speed: 151.2 km/h

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
After the disasterous incident with the Ghost Bears, the DCMS took severe
losses. Among these losses was the majority of the Combine's few assault
helicopters; most of them were second-hand Peregrines purchased from Blackwell
Industries, and fared poorly against the Clans.

Noting this, Acme Widgets - an international consumer goods conglomerate -
surprisingly rose to the challenge. Although they had been producing civilian
aircraft for some time, the Shuriken marks their first attempt at an actual
military air frame. 

The Shuriken is, to put it simply, an ungainly vehicle. It is little more than
an MRM 20 and an engine, with a cockpit, C3 Slave, and landing gear squeezed
in. It is presently unknown how it will fare in real combat, but it has done
well enough in the trials to at least interest the DCMS.

Nice chopper but relatively expensive due to the C3-slave (though it will be of good use especially for that MRM)!
I would rather drop a ton of that generous amount of armor for 10/15 speed. (My personal opinion!)

Nice job.


None of the VTOLs I've put up here will be used against you guys.

Unless of course you manage to anger the wrong people.

You'll get chewed out for that eventually.

The finance officer is smarter than he looks.
