− The '''''Thresher''''' is a second-line [[BattleMech]] that is all-around average. It excels at nothing, but will rarely turn in a particularly poor showing. It has modest speed for a 'Mech its size, which it compensates for with [[MASC]] and enough [[jump jet]]s to leap up to 150 meters. The ''Thresher'' is the result of a joint development project between [[Clan Sea Fox]] and [[Clan Hell's Horses]], the result of which was obvious to [[Inner Sphere]] observers before they had even encountered the 'Mech in battle. The obviously committee-designed unit is far from threatening, but it did provide the basis for a later [[OmniMech]], the ''[[Summoner]]''. This expensive garrison 'Mech uses an [[XL engine]] and an [[Endo Steel]] skeleton to save weight.
