Description
A powerful medium scout and recon 'mech the Ice Ferret was regarded as somethign of a foreign concept when it was first encountered by Inner SPhere forces as the Ice Ferret is a very capable medium scout 'Mech because it is an OmniMech and can be reconfigured to serve in strike and fire support roles. The Ice Ferret is built on a lightweight Endo Steel chassis that saves weight and is powered by a massive 360 XL engine that gives the Ice Ferret a top speed of 129.6 km/h and also accounts for one third of the 'Mechs total weight. The Ice Ferret has twelve double heat sinks mounted on the chassis and is protected by seven and a half tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor giving the 'Mech almost the maximum amount of armor protection for its weight.
