Description

The Kabuto is an impressive light 'Mech that combines speed, armor, and firepower to make an excellent recon and strike BattleMech. To accomplish this, the Kabuto uses an advanced Chariot Type Ia Endo Steel chassis and is powered by a Leenex 140 XL engine that gives the Kabuto an impressive ground speed of 118.8 km/h while also saving weight on the 'Mech for armor and weapons. While the Kabuto is already a hard target to hit because of its ground speed, the 'Mech has four and a half tons of Starshield A armor, giving the Kabuto the maximum amount of armor that a 'Mech of its size can carry .

Armament

The Kabuto has a very straight forward and basic arsenal. For effective and powerful close range firepower the Kabuto has two Guided Technologies 2nd Gen Streak-SRM 4 launchers. The simplicity of its arsenal is one of the keys to the design allowing for easy respply and repair as the 'Mech only has one weapons system.

Variants

No know variants of the Kabuto exist.
