This new 'Mech was to be highly mobile, heavily armored, and be able to outrun anything the 'Mech could not outgun. Additionally the 'Mech had to be a capable brawler since Inner Sphere pilots were often engaging Clan 'Mechs in close quarters hand-to-hand combat. <ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 1'', p. 8</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== Despite being a second line 'Mech, the ''Dominator's'' pilot benefits from all of the progress of Clan technology. The ''Dominator'' is built with both ten and a half tons of [[Ferro-fibrous]] Armor and [[Endo Steel]] Internal Structure. To mitigate heat buildup, the ''Dominator'' is equipped with eighteen [[double heat sink]]s, allowing the Mech's pilot to continuously fire all of its weapons systems and continue to move at full speed. The ''Dominator's'' pilots also enjoy having the advantage of a hundred-and-fifty-meter jump range. The design team then added a [[supercharger]] to the 'Mech's already agile frame. The supercharger benefits the ''Dominator'' by not directly damaging the 'Mech's leg actuators, unlike [[MASC]]. This new piece of equipment increases the ''Dominator's'' durability while providing the pilot with an extra burst of needed speed. When the ''Dominator's'' pilot enters physical combat, the pilot has the ability to engage in a "[[death from above]]" attack. To assist the ''Dominator's'' pilot in the DFA attack, the legs have been reinforced to reduce the amount of damage inflicted to the them. Finally, the design team fulfilled Khan Alaric Ward's directions by equipping the ''Dominator'' with battlefists, making the 'Mech a deadly brawler in close combat. The ''Dominator'' is also equipped with a robust [[targeting computer]], which complements the already deadly gunnery skills of the typical Clan pilot. The ''Dominator'' is equipped with somewhat less weaponry than is normally found on a standard Clan heavy 'Mech. The 'Mech's arsenal begins with a shoulder mounted [[Series 7K]] [[Extended Range Large Laser]] in the its right torso, coupled with an [[Type 22]] [[Extended Range PPC]] mounted in the lower right arm. A recessed [[Smartshot Mark VI]] [[Streak SRM-6|six tubed streak SRM]] is mounted in the 'Mech's left shoulder with one ton of ammunition. Oddly, an [[Series 3K]] [[ER Small Laser|Extended Range Small Laser]] is mounted almost directly behind the ''Dominator's'' pilot in the 'Mech's head, facing the rear. ==Variants== *;''Dominator'' 2 : The ER-PPC is changed out for a second extended range large laser. The supercharger is removed, as is the streak SRM. Replacing the streak SRM is an [[LRM-20]] with an [[Artemis V FCS]]. The missile rack is supplied with two tons of ammunition. The 'Mech's close range firepower is adjusted with an [[ER Medium Laser]], while all weapons are still tied into a less sizeable Targeting Computer. This refit was successful enough to be adopted as a new factory model.
