Description
The Hammerhead is a medium-sized Clan BattleMech designed as a skirmisher by Clan Sea Fox. Designed to loosely resemble a hammerhead shark, the design is intended to be aggressive with its opponents. It was created for both the Sea Foxes' Touman and for sale to any willing Clan buyers.
Weapons and Equipment
Intended for close-in combat, the Hammerhead has 15 tons of hardened armor to help resist damage. Unlike most Clan Mechs, this one is intended to allow inexperienced pilots to survive their first engagements and learn from the experience. With the assistance of leg-mounted AES, the 'Mech's heavy armor helps its pilot keep the 'Mech standing, further assisting newer MechWarriors.

The 'Mech is powered by a 270-Rated Extra Light Engine, which gives the it enough power to support the weight of its Hardened Armor.
