A '''C3 network''' is a network consisting of either a [[C3 command unit]] and up to three [[C3 slave unit]]s or six [[C3i]] units. Basically a special tight-beam communications network, the equipment shares targeting data between [[BattleMech]]s and [[combat vehicle]]s. The original C3 networks were introduced in [[3050]] by the [[Draconis Combine]].<ref name="TMp209">''TechManual'', p. 209, "C3 Computer"</ref><ref name="FM:CSp149+">''Field Manual: ComStar'', pp. 149-150, "Improved C3 Computer"</ref> A '''C3 network''' is a network consisting of either a [[C3 command unit]] and up to three [[C3 slave unit]]s or six [[C3i]] units.
