Description
The Federated Suns introduced Composite Internal Structure in 3061.[1] Inspired by Endo Steel chassis, FedSuns engineers produced a chassis that was light weight but wasn't as bulky as the Endo Steel skeletons. Though they were successful, the materials used in the Composite Structure were very fragile. Any damage to a Composite Internal Structure is twice as damaging as that of an Endo Steel or even standard BattleMech skeleton.[2]
Though the Composite Structure remains an Experimental Technology and restricted to BattleMechs, several combat units have taken advantage of its combination of light weight and lack of bulk to add additional weapons and equipment.
