==Description==
The '''''Huntsman''''' was first seen by [[Inner Sphere]] forces during the [[Battle of Luthien]]. A [[DCMS]] officer designated it the "'''''Nobori-nin'''''" (banner-bearer) after the fin-like object that rises from its back. No expense has been spared in the construction of this front-line [[OmniMech]] that uses an [[Fusion Engine - XL|Extra-Light Engine]], [[Endo Steel]] structure, and nine tons of [[Ferro-Fibrous]] armor. Five [[jump jet]]s enable it to leap up to 150 meters at a time.

==Weapons and Equipment==
The primary configuration of the ''Huntsman'' sports a myriad of weapons. An [[Ultra Autocannon/2]] and [[Artemis IV]]-linked [[LRM-10]] provide long-range capability, while four [[ER Medium Laser]]s and a [[Streak SRM-6]] make it a vicious close range 'Mech. A pair of [[Anti-Personnel Pod]]s and a [[Flamer]] protect it from conventional [[infantry]], and an [[Anti-Missile System]] provides it with some defense against incoming missiles. An [[Active Probe]] finds hidden units, and a [[TAG]] spotting laser can designate targets for homing artillery strikes.

Description

The Huntsman was first seen by Inner Sphere forces during the Battle of Luthien. A Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery officer designated it the "Nobori-nin" (banner-bearer) after the fin-like object that rises from its back. No expense has been spared in the construction of this front-line OmniMech that uses an Extra-Light Engine, Endo Steel structure, and nine tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor. Five jump jets enable it to leap up to 150 meters at a time.[5][1]

Weapons and Equipment

The primary configuration of the Huntsman sports a myriad of weapons. An Ultra Autocannon/2 and Artemis IV-linked LRM-10 provide long-range capability, while four ER Medium Lasers and a Streak SRM-6 make it a vicious close range 'Mech. A pair of Anti-Personnel Pods and a Flamer protect it from conventional infantry, and an Anti-Missile System provides it with some defense against incoming missiles. An Active Probe finds hidden units, and a TAG spotting laser can designate targets for homing artillery strikes.[5][1]

Alternate Configurations

  • Alt. Config. E 
    A Jihad-era config, the E mounts a Large Pulse Laser and paired Medium Pulse Lasers for high accuracy even while jumping. These are supported by an ATM-6 with three tons of ammo as well as an ER Small Laser. An Anti-Missile System, Light Active Probe, and Light TAG round out the equipment package. Four additional double heat sinks help keep the Huntsman E running cool. BV (2.0) = 2,104[15]
