==Description==
The '''''Screamer LAM''''' is a prototype [[Land-Air 'Mech]] which was produced during the reign of Emperor [[Stefan Amaris]] when his forces were occupying the [[Terran Hegemony]] in the late [[Star League Era]].
The ''Screamer LAM'' was part of Amaris's plans to create powerful weapons to be able to counter the [[Star League Defense Force]] when they would return to the Hegemony and reclaim their homeland. Under duress, scientists and engineers began developing the ''Screamer LAM'' at Martinson Armaments in [[2774]], and completed plans for the design were smuggled to [[General]] [[Aleksandr Kerensky]]. However, the SLDF did not have facilities to produce the design on their own.
Only a single prototype was produced, and this was lost during the [[Amaris Civil War|invasion of Terra]]. The 'Mech last saw action in Europe in [[Extinction Era::2777]] during the initial invasion, where it crashed while converting.<ref>''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 2]]'', pp. 68-69 Homecoming Jan-June 2777 - Kerensky and SLDF begin their landings on Terra and Europe theater.</ref>
==Weapons and Equipment==
The design shares the same tonnage as the ''[[Shadow Hawk LAM]]'', and was built as a harasser and quick strike machine. Unlike the original prototype LAM, the ''Screamer LAM'' was able to transition into a fighter, 'Mech, or AirMech modes. Powering the design was a 275-rated [[fusion engine]] and it was equipped with 4 [[jump jet]]s, which gave the ''Screamer LAM'' the same movement performance as the older [[Wasp LAM|WSP-100 ''WASP LAM'' MK I]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3085'', pp. 296-297 WSP-100 Wasp LAM MK I - Wasp LAM Mk I has same exact movement profile in all three LAM modes as Screamer.</ref> 10 [[double heat sink]]s were fitted into the design to handle the heat signature of the 'Mech while it was engaged in fighting and in flight.
[[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]]s piloting the 'Mech relied on the design's remarkable speeds and nine tons of [[standard armor]] to safely harass enemy forces. The ''Screamer LAM''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s only fixed weapon was its right arm-mounted [[ER PPC]].

==Design Quirks==
The ''Screamer LAM'' is subject to the following [[Design Quirks]]:

* [[Obsolete|Obsolete/2778]]

* As of this writing, there is no [[Master Unit List]] profile for the ''Screamer LAM''.
