==Description==
Of the three designs that formed the [[Spectral LAM]] series built and deployed by the [[Word of Blake]], the '''''Yurei''''' was the middleweight design, although as the ''Yurei'' entered service a year before the ''[[Waneta]]'', this wouldn't be immediately obvious to the various opponents of the Blakists. The ''Yurei'' drew its name from the ancient Japanese name for a kind of demonic shape-shifting spirit.<ref name="J:FRp157"/>

The ''Yurei'' featured a [[small cockpit]],<ref name="J:FRp166">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 166, "Yurei Record Sheet"</ref> and carried one ton of fuel, but was generally an indifferent performer when compared to dedicated [[BattleMech]] or [[aerospace fighter]] designs, relying on the shock of its ability to transform, the general effectiveness of the Clantech weaponry it used and the abilities of the ''[[Manei Domini]]'' pilot to compensate for the mediocre speed and weapons payload compared to the opponents it faced in battle.<ref name="J:FRp157"/>

With the destruction of the former [[Brigadier Corporation]] factory on [[Gibson]] the only known manufacturing lines for the ''Yurei'' no longer exist, making it an extinct design to the best of anyone's knowledge, and the little information that is known is drawn largely from studying salvage left from combat actions.<ref name="J:FRp157"/>

==Weapons and Equipment==
Like the larger ''Waneta'' Spectral LAM, the ''Yurei'' mounts a weapons array comprised entirely of Clantech weaponry, although again the exact source of the various weapons is unknown. The weapons are almost all energy weapons, comprising an array of one ER Large Laser backed up by two ER Medium Lasers. In addition to the lasers, the ''Yurei'' has a one-ton internal [[bomb bay]] protected by [[CASE II]], giving the ''Yurei'' the ability to potentially survive an otherwise catastrophic level of internal damage.<ref name="J:FRp157"/>

Eight tons of standard armor provide considerable protection for this weight class, just half a ton short of maximum.

==Variants==
No variants of the ''Yurei'' had been identified as of mid-[[3081]], although the ''Yurei'' was only seen in combat against forces from the [[Principality of Regulus]] and the [[Duchy of Oriente]], so it may be that other variants exist but have yet to be seen.<ref name="J:FRp157"/>

==Quirks==
The ''Yurei'' has two [[Design Quirks]]:
* [[Non-Standard Parts]]
* [[Obsolete]]/[[3081]]
