Description
In an attempt to quickly follow up on the successful Wraith BattleMech Curtiss Militech released the Yeoman in addition to the Eagle. The Yeoman has an awkward physical appearance when compared to most other BattleMechs as it is dominated by it massice missile ports. The Yeoman is powered by a rugged Pitban 240 fusion engine that gives the yeoman a top speed of 64.8 km/h. To save weight the 'Mech has a Curtiss Yeoman Endo Steel chassis that weighs havf as much as a standard internal structure. The Yeoman is armored with eight and a half tons of Kallon FWL Special Ferro-Fibrous armor that provides a respectable amount fo armor protection when compared to direct6 competitors such as the Apollo and Trebuchet. To add to this protection the Yeoman has CASE that allows the 'Mech to survive an ammunition explosion on either side torso.
