	==Description==		==Description==
−	The '''''Predator''''' is a second-line [[BattleMech]] that is the product of a cooperative venture between the various [[Clan Fire Mandrill]] Kindraa. It is protected by eleven and a half tons of armor and can move at a respectable speed for a heavy 'Mech. Useful as either a medium-range duelist or as a close-up skirmisher, it can use its autocannons to deal a strong punch, then follow up with cluster rounds that exploit holes in an enemy 'Mech's armor.<ref name=TRO3060/>	+	The '''''Predator''''' is a second-line [[BattleMech]] that is the product of a cooperative venture between the various [[Clan Fire Mandrill]] Kindraa.

−	==Weapons and Equipment==	+	==Armament==
−	Roughly a third of the ''Predator'''s mass is consumed by two Faraday [[LB 10-X Autocannon]]s. These have ample ammunition for most [[Clan]] Trials and usually stock both cluster and slug rounds. They are supported by a pair of Series 2FM [[ER Medium Laser]]s and paired Series 1 [[ER Small Laser]]s. Not only can the lasers keep the symmetrical design in the fight after its autocannon ammunition runs out, they do not create a burden on the 'Mech's ability to control heat under normal circumstances. Ten [[double heat sink]]s is all the ''Predator'' needs to keep its heat in check.<ref name=TRO3060/>	+	Roughly a third of the ''Predator'''s mass is consumed by the twin Faraday [[LB 10-X Autocannon]].
