The Cheetahs is a name derived from a friend of Jack Traver and Mia Fowler who died on Terra during Clan Wolf's rise to ilClan. Their friend's callsign was Cheetah, the mercenary company named in their honor.
They were initially of Inner Sphere origins, their founding members formerly from the Republic Military.
