As the [[SLDF]] battled Republican troops in the streets and thoroughfares of the [[Terran Hegemony]], many 'Mechs were destroyed by dug-in infantry during these urban battles. In response to this problem, MatherTechno Inc. designed the ''Vulcan'' to pack weaponry capable of taking out large numbers of enemy troops and capable of unparalleled mobility in an urban environment, though not intended to engage in all-out battles with larger 'Mechs. The ''Vulcan'''s distinct profile would eventually give rise to its nickname "Scarecrow."<ref name=TRO3025r>''Technical Readout: 3025 Revised'', p. 42-43</ref><ref name=TRO3039>''Technical Readout: 3039'', p. 124-125</ref><ref name=TRO3050u>''Technical Readout: 3050 Upgrade'', p. 42-43</ref> Production of the ''Vulcan'' began as soon as MatherTechno's factory on [[Northwind]] was liberated by the SLDF, with [[Aleksandr Kerensky]] himself specifically ordering their production lines converted to produce the ''Vulcan''. The design's baptism of fire came during [[Operation Liberation]], the final battle of the civil war to liberate [[Terra]] from [[Stefan Amaris]], where it served as part of the Volunteer Regiments and earned its reputation as a tough city fighter. Each of the [[Great Houses]] had a sizable number of ''Vulcans'' at the start of the [[First Succession War]] when, just a few months into the conflict, MatherTechno's factory on Northwind was destroyed. Only the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] and [[Free Worlds League]] managed to acquire the design specifications for the ''Vulcan'' and keep it in limited production throughout the rest of the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]], with the League awarding the schematics to [[Nimakachi Fusion Products Limited]] and the Commonwealth giving theirs to [[Coventry Metal Works]]. Of the other Great Houses the [[Capellan Confederation]] had the fewest number of ''Vulcans'' as a result of the loss of [[Sappho]], where the majority of their ''Vulcans'' were stationed, to House Marik during the [[Second Succession War]]. The [[Federated Suns]] kept their ''Vulcans'' going thanks to several spare part supply dumps located in their territory, and used the 'Mech extensively during the reconquest of [[Kentares IV]]. The majority of the [[Draconis Combine]]'s ''Vulcan'' inventory was used during a raid on [[Dobson]] in [[3020]] where they decimated several key Davion [[aerospace fighter]] bases.<ref name=TRO3025r/><ref name=TRO3039/><ref name=TRO3050u/> Following the recovery of several [[lostech]] components Nimakachi was able to create a new variant, the VT-5M, and begin limited production in [[3050]],<ref>''[http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/3461 MUL online date for the ''{{PAGENAME}}'']''</ref> eventually increasing their lines to produce twenty a month. Coventry Metal Works produced their own upgraded variant around the same time, the VT-5S, which played a pivotal role during the [[FedCom Civil War]] as part of the Allied forces. The [[Word of Blake]] purchased a number of ''Vulcans'' in preparation for their seizure of Terra in [[3058]], codenamed [[Operation Odysseus]]. The Blakists would go on to seize more ''Vulcans'' after the start of the [[Jihad]] following their sacking of Nimakachi's Tematagi plant in [[3069]], with many transferred to the [[Protectorate Militia]] for policing duties.<ref name=TRO3025r/><ref name=TRO3039/><ref name=TRO3050u/> ==Weapons and Equipment== The ''Vulcan'''s primary weapons are a [[Firestorm (Flamer)|Firestorm]] [[Flamer]] mounted in the right arm and a [[Sperry Browning]] [[Machine Gun]] in the left arm, fed by one ton of ammunition stored in the left torso.

It removes the Autocannon/2 and replaces it with three [[Maxum]] medium lasers, two heat sinks, and using the remaining mass saved to add two additional tons of armor. The majority of the Federated Suns' ''Vulcans'' were 5T models.<ref name=TRSWp64f /><ref name=TRO3025r/><ref name=TRO3039/> BV (1.0) = 744, BV (2.0) = 942<ref>''Record Sheets: 3039 Unabridged'', p. 106</ref> *; VT-5M : The 5M ''Vulcan'' is an upgrade of the 2T version used by House Marik that makes the 'Mech far more effective in close range combat. The 'Mech uses a [[Crucis-II Delux]] [[Endo Steel]] chassis and removes the autocannon for a [[Tronel PPL-20]] [[Large Pulse Laser]] and also upgrades the medium laser to a [[Tronel XII]] [[Medium Pulse Laser]], using an [[LFN Lindblad]] and [[Flame Tech]] brand machine gun and flamer respectively. Eleven [[double heat sink]]s were also incorporated. This version of the ''Vulcan'' began production in [[3052]] and ceased only with the destruction of Nimakachi's [[Tematagi]] plant in [[3069]].

High Grade [[ferro-fibrous]] with [[CASE]] to protect itself from ammunition explosions. The inclusion of [[MASC]] enables the 5S to move up to 129 km/h in short bursts. Additionally, the Autocannon/2 has been replaced with an Imperator [[Ultra Autocannon/5]].<ref name=TRO3050u/> BV (1.0) = 681, BV (2.0) = 833<ref>''Master Unit List: Battle Values'', p. 164</ref> *; VT-5Sr : This Jihad-era field refit ''Vulcan'' carries two extra heat sinks and a [[plasma rifle]] while retaining the medium laser, machine gun and flamer.

This upgraded version of the 5M swapped out the lasers for an [[ER Large Laser]] and [[ER medium laser]], respectively. The weight saved was used to install a [[C3i Computer]]. The removal of a heat sink allowed for the replacement of the machine gun with three [[Light Machine Gun]]s linked to a [[Machine Gun Array]].<ref name=TRO3050u/> BV (2.0) = 959<ref name=MUL165>''Master Unit List: Battle Values'', p. 165</ref> *; VT-6M : Another upgrade of the 5M, this variant was produced by Nimakachi before their plant was destroyed, though only around thirty of these 'Mechs were produced and most were captured by the Blakists. The addition of an 240 [[XL engine]] allowed engineers to swap out the lasers for an ER Medium and a [[Light Gauss Rifle]] with a generous two-ton ammunition bin.
