Description
As part of Victor Stiener-Davions attempt to rebuild national pride the JagerMech underwent a redesign and was christened the JagerMech III. The JagerMech III is built on a similar philosophy as the original of keeping an enemy at range. To make this new JagerMech III fit into the mobile warfare doctorine embraced by the AFFC the 'Mech is powered by a massive VOX 325 XL engine that gives it a top speed of 86.4 km/h while weighing half as much as a standard fusion engine. To save even more weight the JagerMech III is built on a Kallon Type XIV Endo Steel chassis. The JagerMech III carries armor in line with its role as a long-range 'Mech with only nine and a half tons of Kallon Unity Weave Ferro-Fibrous armor. The design has suffered some criticism for its lack of CASE to protect its ammunition with so much advanced technology on board. Finally to dissipate waste heat the 'Mech has twelve double heat sinks.
Armament
The primary weapons the JagerMech III carries for extreme ranged combat are two Mydron Model D-rf Light Ultra Autocannon/2s that are capable of hitting with light damage out to seven hundred and fifty meters. For intermediate ranges, in spite of the state of the art construction techniques used on the 'Mech, the JagerMech III relies on two Johnston Parti-Cannon PPCs backed up by two Intek Medium Lasers for close combat.
