Description
The Hunchback is a 'Mech built for close-range combat. Originally conceived in 2572, the Hunchback is well-known as an urban combat 'Mech. The only real flaw in the Hunchbacks design as a city fighter are its lack of jump jets combined with its relatively slow ground speed of only 64.8 km/h. Aside from this flaw, the design is a respected and dangerous 'Mech when in a city environment. When in the open though, its lack of any long-range weapons makes the Hunchback little more than a slow-moving target.[1]
Armament
The primary weapon on the Hunchback is a Tomodzuru Autocannon Mount Type 20 Autocannon/20 which can strip one and a quarter tons off of an enemy 'Mech in a single blow. This is paired with two Ichiba 2000 Medium Lasers and a Diverse Optics Type 10 Small Laser. All of the weapons carried by the Hunchback excel at close ranges and make it a devastating opponent at close range.[2]
Variants
- HBK-2 - Described as a venerable Star League-era model, this version of the Hunchback was the basis from which the Clans developed the Hunchback IIC (see below).
- HBK-4H - One of many variants, the 4H Hunchback is a modification of the design that uses a lighter Autocannon/10 and adds an additional two Medium Lasers. This modification increases the Hunchbacks long range striking capability at the expense of raw firepower. BV (1.0) = 850, BV (2.0) = 1,067[1]

The structure has been modified to use Endo Steel construction techniques, the engine has been upgraded to a Light Fusion Engine, and it has had four Jump Jets added for increased mobility. The 'Mech carries as its primary weapon an LB-X Autocannon/20. This is backed up by two Medium Pulse Lasers and a single Small Laser. BV (1.0) = 1,311, BV (2.0) = 1,350[3]
- HBK-5SG - A prototype that never saw full production, the 5SG trades out the autocannon and Small Laser of the 5S for a Gauss Rifle and Guardian ECM Suite. The addition of Stealth Armor makes this Hunchback a long-range sniper that is difficult to hit. A Compact Gyro is used to make room for all of the equipment. BV (2.0) = 1,577[3]

- HBK-7X-4 - This failed factory experimental variant of the Hunchback was developed by Kali Yama Weapons Industries of Kalidasa. Only four prototypes were produced in 3065, but no orders were placed for it. This experimental version of the 'Mech included CASE II, Torso-Mounted Cockpit, Armored Gyro, and Reinforced Structure. The 'Mech was protected by 9 tons of Ferro-Fibrous Armor and its armored and reinforced components enhanced its battlefield survivability. It was armed with a single Class 10 Ultra Autocannon carrying two tons of ammo. However, the design was considered too expensive for the reduction in firepower. BV (2.0) = 1,208[4]
Custom Variants
- HBK-4G Hunchback Shakir - The personal 'Mech of Sorenson’s Sabres member and future ISF director Shakir Jerrar, in the lead-up to the War of 3039 his Hunchback was refitted to an advanced variation of the 4H, carrying two prototype Medium Pulse Laser in place of the four standard Medium Lasers. [5]
- HBK-4G Hunchback Hohiro - Assigned Jerrar's 'Mech after his retirement from the Sabres, when piloted by Hohiro Utsonomiya during the Jihad it was refitted with post-Clan Invasion technology. The addition of an Endo steel chassis and Ferro-Fibrous armor frees up weight to swap the standard AC/10 for an Ultra Autocannon/10, retaining the two ton ammo bay, carrying standard production grade Medium Pulse Lasers in the arms and a ER Small Laser in the head, adding a C3 Slave in the center torso.

- Isoroku Kurita, nephew of Takashi Kurita, deeply admired the Hunchback, and piloted his machine to many successes in his early military career.[citation needed]
