Description
The Ha Otoko is primarily a defensive, second-line BattleMech. Clan Diamond Shark first fielded the cheap 'Mech in 3060 when they helped Clan Nova Cat evacuate from Clan space. Clan Jade Falcon merchants were the first to point out that the Ha Otoko seems meant to be sold to the Inner Sphere, being easily modified to accommodate similar Inner Sphere weaponry, in addition to the Oriental styling of the 'Mech's exterior. The Ha Otoko is protected by thirteen tons of armor.
Armament
A missile boat, the Ha Otoko uses a pair of torso-mounted Type XX "Great Bow" LRM-20s and a pair of arm-mounted Type X "Short Bow" LRM-10 launchers. However, it only incorporates thirteen single heat sinks, so MechWarriors must carefully manage their heat. Many only fire the LRM-10s when enemies attempt to flank them.
Variants
- HKO-1C - This is the Draconis Combine variant that Clan Jade Falcon merchants predicted would appear. This variant replaces the Clan weaponry with missile launchers of Inner Sphere manufacture. In order to account for the increased weight, this Ha Otoko variant makes use of an Extra-Light Engine and double heat sinks. BV (1.0) = 1,082, BV (2.0) = 1,288[3]
- Ha Otoko 2 - This Clan tech variant of the 'Mech appeared during the Jihad, which makes the 'Mech a general purpose role. The 'Mech has been fitted with some the newest technology of the time period. Based on the Clan version of the design, all the original missile launchers are removed, except for a single arm mounted LRM 10. The launcher retains only 1 ton of ammunition in left arm with the weapon. Complimenting the LRM launcher in right arm, the 'Mech has been given a Class 30 Hyper Assault Gauss Rifle with 4 tons of ammunition. The 'Mech been given a Plasma Cannon and four ER Medium Lasers round up the 'Mech weaponry in closer range fighting. To accommodate these new changes, the 'mech engine has switched to a XL Fusion Engine and its armor protection has been slightly reduced. BV (2.0) = 2,348[4]
- Ha Otoko 3 - By replacing the chassis of the HKO-1C with an Endo Steel version and removing the arm mounted missile launchers, engineers added extended range Large and medium lasers and Artemis IV FCS to the remaining missile launchers. An ECM suite is also added to interfere with Word of Blake electronics, and AP Gauss Rifles counter enemy infantry units.[5] BV (2.0) = 2,206[6]
