−	The '''''Razorback''''' is a design that excels at little, but is similarly deficient in few areas. Its weapon loadout allows it to be effective at both long and short range, against both armored and unarmored targets. Though the design is rather slow for a 'Mech of its size, it is rarely the slowest 'Mech on the field, either. Because of the 'Mech's general reliance on ballistic and missile weaponry, it does not have to worry about overheating under normal circumstances but is dependent on supply trains.<ref name="TRO:3067p52+"/>	+	The '''''Razorback''''' is a design that excels at little, but is similarly deficient in few areas.

Perhaps the role the 'Mech is best suited for is in assaulting unarmored infantry. Its array of Coventry Light Autogun [[Machine Gun]]s allow the 'Mech to make very short work of infantry platoons. The 'Mech is also well-suited to clean-up work with its Defiance Trak-Shot II [[Streak SRM-4]].
