[edit] Description
The Phoenix Hawk LAM was the largest Land-Air 'Mech produced during the Star League. Unfortunately, Land-Air 'Mech conversion technology was not fully researched before the fall of the Star League, especially on a Land-Air 'Mech of this size. The destruction of the Allied Aerospace facilities have prevented further development and refinement.
[edit] Armament
The basic configuration of the Phoenix Hawk LAM is armed with a torso-mounted One Amsterdam 120 Large Laser, and tandem Maxum 50 Medium Laser-Sperry/Browning Machine Gun in each arm. Despite the increased size of the Land-Air 'Mech relative to the original Phoenix Hawk, the Phoenix Hawk LAM remains poorly armored. Worse, the Phoenix Hawk LAM is vulnerable to being crippled during conversion.
[edit] Variants
LRM - House Marik produced a variant of the Phoenix Hawk LAM which replaces the Large Laser and Machine Guns with a Holly LRM-10.
