Description
The Phoenix Hawk LAM was the largest Land-Air 'Mech produced during the Star League. Unfortunately, Land-Air 'Mech conversion technology was not fully researched before the fall of the Star League, especially on a Land-Air 'Mech of this size. The destruction of the Allied Aerospace facilities have prevented further development and refinement.
Armament
The basic configuration of the Phoenix Hawk LAM is armed with a torso-mounted One Amsterdam 120 Large Laser, and tandem Maxum 50 Medium Laser-Sperry/Browning Machine Gun in each arm. Despite the increased size of the Land-Air 'Mech relative to the original Phoenix Hawk, the Phoenix Hawk LAM remains poorly armored. Worse, the Phoenix Hawk LAM is vulnerable to being crippled during conversion.
Variants
- LRM - House Marik produced a variant of the Phoenix Hawk LAM which replaces the Large Laser and Machine Guns with a Holly LRM-10.
- PHX-HK1 - Developed for the Star League Defense Force Royal Divisions, this variant of the Phoenix Hawk LAM used four Medium Lasers and a single ER Large Laser as its main firepower. Twelve double heat sinks kept the heat curve low, but the limited fuel, armor, and maneuverability made the Phoenix Hawk LAM easy prey for AeroSpace Fighters of the same weight. It could maneuver fast enough to evade heavier foes however.[1] BV (2.0) = 1,942
- PHX-HK1R - This version was created before the introduction of the PHX-HK2. It removed the ER Large Laser, a Medium Laser, and two heat sinks, replacing them with an experimental Snub-Nose PPC, Beagle Active Probe, and an additional half ton of armor.[1] BV (2.0) = ????
