Description

The Prey Seeker, manufactured by Achernar BattleMechs on Cahokia, was designed to be a high-speed scout and raider; while the Prey Seeker's mission profile speaks to MechWarriors who feel marginalised by the growth of combined-arms warfare, the unusual construction of the arms and the phenomenal speeds the 'Mech can reach echo the Dasher OmniMech first seen in the Inner Sphere during the Clan Invasion.[1]

Weapons and Equipment

Mounting a pair of ChisComp 73 Medium Re-Engineered Lasers for defense, the Prey Seeker isn't a brawler, but the uncommon weapons do offer an advantage against opponents that make use advanced armor types such as Hardened Armor, Ferro-Lamellor, and Reflective Armor.[1][4]

Variants

As of 3145 no variants of the Prey Seeker had been introduced to service.[1]
