Equipped with thirteen and a half tons of [[Stealth Armor]] powered by an [[Angel ECM Suite]], the ''Tian-zong'' is a premier "Recon in Force" [['Mech]]. The 300-rated [[extralight engine]] propels the ''Tian-zong'' to a top speed of 64 km/h, which can make for a jarring ride given the [[Small Cockpit]]. The ''Tian-zong'' is one of the first Capellan 'Mechs to use an [[Endo-Composite]] skeleton. Twelve [[Double Heat Sink]]s dissipate the heat from the Stealth Armor. It is a popular 'Mech with [[CCAF]] commanders.<ref name=TRO:CCp44/> ==Weapons and Equipment== The 'Mech is armed with a pair of [[Mydron Concussor]] [[Gauss rifle]]s as its main weaponry. Each rifle has two tons of ammunition, keeping it in the fight. For close-in work the 'Mech carries a [[Ceres Arms]] [[Extended Range Medium Laser]] in each arm. ==Variants== *;TZN-N2 : This ''Tian-zong'' replaces the standard weaponry with a [[Light Gauss Rifle]] in the side torsos and an [[ER Large Laser]] in each arm. The Light Gauss Rifles each have a ton of ammunition. All other aspects of the N2 are identical to the N1. BV (2.0) = 1,726<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Capellan Confederation'', p. 92</ref><ref>''Record Sheets: 3145 Unabridged'', p. 102</ref> *;TZN-N3 : This variant is based on the N1. It uses the same Gauss Rifles, but they only have a ton of ammunition. Two heat sinks have been removed (leaving ten in the engine) as have the ER Medium Lasers. The freed space and mass allows the N3 to carry a [[Light PPC]] in each arm. It is identical to the N1 in all other respects.
