Description

First encountered in late 3085, the Persepolis is a second-line Clan AeroSpace Fighter developed by Clan Jade Falcon. The craft was first developed unbeknownst to military intelligence of the Inner Sphere until a pirate band attempted to raid Sudeten. The Persepolis was the first product of the Falcon's new orbital space factory, Falcon's Roost Orbital Assembly Plant. The powerful fighter has seen deployment to nearly all of Clan Jade Falcon's second and front-line Galaxies with the exception of its elite formations, which have been given the allotment of the OmniFighters in the Clan's Touman.[5]

Weapons and Equipment

The medium fighter is geared to fighting standoff engagements using its Series 7k Extended-Range Large Lasers and its advanced tech 20-tubed Streak LRMs. Each of the launchers has allotment of 2 tons ammunition between each of them, while its Streak technology prevents wasted shots. In close range, the fighter's brace of Improved Heavy Medium & Small Lasers add to Persepolis's firepower to finish off an opponent. However, flaws in Falcon's manufacturing process caused these weapons to explode.

The fighter is not considered the fastest of its class, however where it is not as quick it is well armored with 9 tons of Compound Gamma Ferro-Aluminum Armor.[6]

Design Quirks

The Persepolis is subject to the following Design Quirks:
