==History==
The '''''Midway''''' was a ''[[Broadsword]]''-class [[DropShip]] (misreported as its [[Inner Sphere]] equivalent, the ''[[Leopard]]''-class) operated by [[Clan Nova Cat]] as part of the [[3rd Nova Cat Aerospace Cluster]]. Under [[Star Captain]] [[Cadonna]], it took part in the [[Battle of Luthien (Clan Invasion)|Battle of Luthien]] during the [[Clan Invasion]].<ref>''Luthien'', p. 30</ref>

==Notes==
*When the ''Luthien'' scenario pack was published in 1993, the Clans' own DropShip classes had not yet been introduced to BattleTech; these were only introduced in ''[[Technical Readout: 3057]]'' which was published in 1994, i.e. a year later, with the notable exception of the ''Broadsword'' class which debuted in the 1992 scenario pack ''[[Bloodright (scenario pack)|Bloodright]]''. An official ruling thus states that Clan DropShips mentioned in earlier sources including namely the ''Luthien'' scenario pack can be assumed to have been of their Clan equivalent classes instead (see ''[[Luthien (scenario pack)#Notes]]'').<br />That said, the ''Midway'' features in a scenario where it would upset or at least significantly alter the balance of the opposing forces to change it from a ''Leopard'' into a ''Broadsword''. It is conceivable that the Clans could have captured ''Leopard''-class vessels from the Inner Sphere prior to [[3052]], and deployed such captured vessels in the Battle of Luthien.
