History[edit]

The Nightshade is a Federated Commonwealth Conventional Fighter used by both sides of the FedCom Civil War. In the field, its high maneuverability does not make up for its weak armor and light armament; as a result, these fighters have quite high casualty rates.

Armament[edit]

The Nightshade is armed with only two SRM 2s.[1]

Variants[edit]

No known variants of the Nightshade exist.

Canonicity[edit]

Being mentioned only in an apocryphal source (the video game MechWarrior 4), the Nightshade must consequentially be considered apocryphal as well.
