==Description==
 
==Description==
The '''''Naginata''''', named as an old Samurai lance-like weapon, is designed as a command and fire support [['Mech]] that carries a [[C3 Master Computer]]. The 'Mech is built using a massive [[Pitban 285]] [[fusion engine]], giving it a top speed of 54 km/h. The ''Naginata'' makes use of [[double heat sink]] technology for its added heat dissipation capabilities to handle the waste heat that is produced by the 'Mech's massive arsenal. For protection, the ''Naginata'' carries fifteen tons of armor and includes [[CASE]] to protect against an ammunition explosion. The mix of heavy armor, [[CASE]], and a standard engine make the ''Naginata'' a zombie of a 'Mech that can take a tremendous amount of damage.

==Armament==
The ''Naginata'' serves in the dual role of command and fire support 'Mech. The C3 master computer allows the 'Mech to share the targeting data of its lancemates and to take advantage of their targeting information, making the three [[Coventry Star Fire]] [[LRM-15]]s with [[Artemis IV]] fire control systems and the [[Lord's Light 2]] [[ER PPC]] extremely accurate. The [[Artemis IV]] fire control system gives the 'Mech increased missile accuracy.

* NG-C3B - The C3B variant of the ''Naginata'' removes one of the [[LRM-15]] launchers in order to add a second [[C3 Master Computer]] and a Guardian [[ECM Suite]] to the design. The 'Mech also has had an [[ER Medium Laser]] and an [[ER Small Laser]] added for close range defense. BV (1.0) = 1,867, BV (2.0) = 1,693

* NG-C3C - A variant built for greater mobility, the C3C is based on the C3A variant. The 'Mech removes two tons of LRM ammunition and the [[C3 Master Computer]] and replaces it with a [[C3 Slave]] unit. The 'Mech uses the saved weight to add three jump jets allowing the ''Naginata'' to jump up to 90 meters. BV (1.0) = 1,962 BV (2.0) = 2,131
