[edit] Description

Based on an old Star League design called the Sling, the Duan Gung likely shares its roots with the Koshi OmniMech as the Sling shared many characteristics with both designs and it is felt that the Sling easily accepted upgrades with OmniMech technology. The Duan Gung is a competent light fire support 'Mech, capable of keeping up with most other light 'Mechs with a ground speed of 119 km/h and the ability to jump up to one hundred and eighty meters. To save weight and allow the Duan Gung to carry as heavy of an arsenal as possible, the 'Mech is built on a Chariot Type II Endo Steel chassis and is powered by an Omni 175 XL Engine that weighs half as much as its standard fusion counterpart. To handle the heat from its weapons, the Duan Gung has ten double heat sinks that are more than adequate for the 'Mechs needs. Finally, for protection from enemy fire, the Duan Gung carries four tons of Valiant DefCo armor which, provides more than enough protection in the 'Mechs intended role of fire support.

[edit] Armament

The Duan Gungs primary weapon is a Zeus LRM-10 missile launcher that allows the 'Mech to hit targets at up to six hunded and thirty meters while also giving the Duan Gung indirect fire support capabilities. For close range engagements, the 'Mech has two Martell Medium Lasers.
