Description
Codenamed the Puma by Inner Sphere forces that first engaged the 'Mech the Adder is a light OmniMech that serves in a direct or an indirect fire support role in most of its configurations. The Adder frees up as much weight as possible by using a weight saving Endo-Steel chassis that carries a lightweight 210 XL Engine that gives the 'Mech a top speed of 97.2 km/h. The Adder is armored with six tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor for protection from enemy fire. The effort to save weight has resulted in a 'Mech that has almost half of its weight in pod space at sixteen tons. This has resulted in a light 'Mech capable of carrying a relatively heavy weapons payload that can surprise an unsuspecting enemy.
Armament
The Adder has a Flamer that is mounted in a fixed mount and cannot be removed from the 'Mech. The primary configuration adds to this a basic but powerful arsenal of two ER PPCs which are linked to an advanced Targeting Computer allowing the primary configuration of the Adder to stike at long ranges with deadly accuraccy. To help handle the massive heat from the twin ER PPCs the Adder has an additional double heat sink. Even with the additional double heat sink the 'Mech must use volley fire to prevent it from overheating.
Alternate Configurations
- Alt. Config. A - A long range missile support configuration the 'Adder A has a pair of LRM-20 launchers alowing it to bombard an enemy from long range. For close combat the 'Mech has two Small Pulse Lasers. BV (1.0) = 1,304, BV (2.0) = 1,437
- Alt. Config. B - A long range sniping configuration the B configuration carries a LB-X Autocannon/5 backed up by a highly accurate Large Pulse Laser for long range engagements. To protect itself at close ranges the Adder B has a pair of ER Medium Lasers. BV (1.0) = 1,176, BV (2.0) = 1,422
- Alt. Config. C - Another long range bombardment configuration the Adder C has two LRM-15 launchers and takes advantage of their lack of a minimum range by carrying a Narc Missile Beacon that can attach homing pods to enemy 'Mechs for increased missile accuracy. For close range defense the 'Mech has a single Medium Pulse Laser. BV (1.0) = 1,268, BV (2.0) = 1,372
