Description
This apparent precursor to the Phoenix Hawk LAM was called the Munin LAM; it may have had a different name originally. The only samples known to exist were those recovered from a cache by the Tyr Resistance Movement shortly before the Fourth Succession War. The number of Munin LAMs they recovered is unknown.[1]
The Tyr underground movement used the LAMs for operations throughout the Rasalhague Military District. They were reported by both House Kurita and House Steiner, but apparently mistaken for Phoenix Hawk LAMs.
The last major operation including the design seems to have been a battle against pirates on Outpost in 3033. By then the Munin LAMs were operating as part of the Free Rasalhague Republic's KungsArmé. Reportedly, out of four LAMs in the fighting only one remained operable.[2]
Weapons and Equipment
The basic version is armed with a Magna Mk. I large laser, two Magna Mk. II medium lasers and a Magna Mk. III small laser, with fifteen heat sinks. Variants have exchanged the Mk. I or Mk. II lasers and heat sinks for missile launchers; see below.
Variants
Several variants have been reported, though it remains unclear if these are true production variants or mere field refits. One exchanges the Mk. II medium lasers and three heat sinks for a SRM-6. Another variant exchanges the Mk. I large laser and one heat sink for a LRM-10 launcher.
