A serious knife fighter, it carries a dazzling array of short-range weaponry that makes the design brutally effective in an urban environment. Adding to this is its deliberately imposing design, with thick, angular plates of armor. Though the ''Matador'' is slow for a 'Mech its size, it does make use of [[jump jet]]s that allow it to jump up to 120 meters. A hefty twelve tons of armor ensures that those armor slabs are not just for show.<ref name=TRO3060/> ==Weapons and Equipment== Four [[Series XII Rotary]] [[Machine Gun]]s and two [[Chi Series]] [[Small Pulse Laser]]s provide a barrage of anti-[[infantry]] fire, while two [[Series 2b]] [[Extended Range Medium Laser]]s and three [[Lambda]] [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s provide it with short- to medium-range fire. Finally, ten short-range missiles courtesy of a [[Pattern J6]] [[Streak SRM-6]] and a [[Pattern JX]] [[Streak SRM-4]] can make short work of any weaknesses exposed in any enemy [['Mech]]'s armor. While a [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] must carefully manage heat levels, the restrictive terrain in which the ''Matador'' excels usually allows opportunities to disengage and cool off.<ref name=TRO3060/> ==Variants== *;''Matador'' 2 : Developed during the [[Jihad]] in [[3069]]<ref name=MUL>''Master Unit List'', "Matador introduction dates"</ref>, the ''Matador 2'' is an updated version of the original design.
