The '''''Yu Huang''''', named for the Jade Emperor that rules the Heavenly Court in the ancient Chinese pantheon, debuted with the promise from [[Sun-Tzu Liao]] that "it shall sit in judgment over a battlefield, meting out justice to those who would transgress against us". To live up to the promise of the [[Chancellor]] of the [[Capellan Confederation]], the ''Yu Huang'' carries some of the most advanced technologies available at the time of its initial production. The ''Yu Huang'' is built on a Chariot Type II [[Endo Steel]] chassis and carries a Hermes 360 [[XL engine]] that gives the 'Mech a top speed of 64.8 km/h. The 'Mech is capable of jumping up to one hundred and twenty meters with its four Rodan 90 [[jump jet]]s. The ''Yu Huang'' has thirteen [[double heat sink]]s to handle its heat load and also has seventeen tons of Star Shell armor, providing the 'Mech with excellent protection.

Production of the ''Yu Huang'' would cease in December [[3068]] when the [[Olson's Rangers]] [[mercenary unit]] irreversibly destroyed its production lines. In response to the large number of active Assault 'Mech lines and the horrific losses that the CCAF's Light 'Mech forces sustained during the [[Jihad]], rather than rebuild the lost line Shengli instead focused on creating and building the ''[[Dola]]'' in the same chambers that once housed the ''Yu Huang''’s assembly area. <ref name=TROP-96>''Technical Readout: Prototypes'', p. 96 "DOL-1A1 Dola"</ref> Following the loss of Shengli in [[3105]], Ceres Metal Industries purchased the company's remaining assets and converted their ''[[Ostroc]]'' line on [[Capella]] to produce the Confederation's trademark command 'Mech. These new Ceres-manufactured ''Yu Haung''s are instantly recognizable by the elaborate head crest added by the Ceres engineers.<ref name=FM3145-28>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 28 "Capellan Confederation - State of Readiness - Capella Commonality"</ref>
