This expensive OmniMech makes use of weight-saving technologies in the form of a [[Type 79-45]] [[endo steel]] internal structure, an [[RFUM 270 XL]] [[extralight engine]], and seven tons of [[Compound H17]] [[ferro-fibrous]] armor. All of these together allow the ''Shadow Cat'' to employ more [[pod space]] than the ''Ice Ferret'' at the expense of speed. To counteract this, the base chassis employs enough [[jump jet]]s to vault up to 180 meters in a single bound and [[MASC|Myomer Accelerator Signal Circuitry]] that enables it to move nearly 130 km/h in bursts.<ref name=TRO3058Upp170f/><ref name=TRO:3058pp166f/>

The Primary configuration of the ''Shadow Cat'' wields a [[Gauss rifle]], allowing it to handily defeat smaller opponents, often before they can get within range. A pair of smaller [[ER medium laser]]s back up the rifle, together able to deal almost as much damage as the Gauss rifle can at closer ranges. An [[active probe]] gives the ''Shadow Cat'' the ability to detect hidden units, making it a capable scout.<ref name=TRO3058Upp170f/><ref name=TRO:3058pp166f/>
