Description
The Dragon Fire is a design that was originally designed in the 28th century that never made the transition from a design on paper to an actual production model. The discovery of the Gray Death Memory Core gave the Dragon Fire a new lease on life and the 'Mech first saw production in late 3058. The Dragon Fire carries an impressive arsenal of weapons that is made possible through the use of a Pitban 300 XL Engine that weights half as much as a standard engine and still provides the Dragon Fire with a top speed of 64.8 kph. The Dragon Fire carries an impressive fourteen and a half tons of ArcShield Maxi II armor. The Dragon Fire also has CASE to protect the 'Mech from excessive damage from an ammunition explosion. Finally, to disrupt enemy electronic warfare equipment, the Dragon Fire has a Guiardian ECM Suite.
Armament
The primary weapon on the Dragon Fire is a Zeus Slingshot Gauss Rifle that provides excellent long range firepower. This is backed up by a Mydron Excel LB-X Autocannon/10 which is capable of firing both standard and cluster ammunition making the Dragon Fire a capable vehicle hunter and anti-aircraft 'Mech. An Exostar Large Laser provides secondary firepower to the Dragon Fires ammunition heavy weapons. For close combat, the Dragon Fie carries a pair of Defiance B4M Medium Pulse Lasers.
Variants
- DGR-4F - A basic upgrade of the 3F model, the 4F replaces the Large Laser with an ER Large Laser giving it a longer effective range. The 4F model is otherwise identical to the 3F. BV (1.0) = 1,565
