Description
Based on the Raven BattleMech the Sha Yu, or Shark, is one of the first 'Mechs to incorporate the new Stealth Armor developed by the Capellan Confederation. The Sha Yu is built on a lightweight Hellespont Type T Endo Steel and is powered by a VOX 280 XL engine that gives the Sha Yu an impressive top speed of 118.8 km/h. The Sha Yu is protected with six and a half tons of Hellespont Lite Stealth Armor making the 'Mech extremely hard to hit. The Sha Yu also carries a Guardian ECM Suite as part of its stealth armor that protects it from enemy electronic warfarwe systems.
Armament
The Sha Yu is armed with a basic yet effective energy weapons based payload. For long range combat the 'Mech has two Martell ER Large Lasers providing good long range firepower These are backed up by a pair of Diverse Optics Type ER Medium Lasers for close combat. Finally for added lethality the Sha Yu carries a TAG target designator allowing it to call in accurate Arrow IV artilery missile attacks on a target.
Variants
- SYU-4B - modified for close range barawling the 4B variant of the Sha Yu completely reconfigures the 'Mech to optimize it for use as a close combat brawler in a C3 lance. The ER Large Lasers have been dropped in favor of a single LRM-5 launcher for long range sparring and finally for close combat the 'Mech has three Medium Pulse Lasers and also has a C3 Slave unit added to the 'Mech to alow it to be used in C3 lances.
