Overview

The Scout model of the Shadow Hawk is the latest variant to be produced for the Inner Sphere. While it does feature awesome medium range firepower due to its MRM-20 Missile System, its most important features are its Beagle Active probe for finding hidden units, and its C3 Slave unit to report back its findings to company command. It also carries a TAG unit for targetting artillery strikes. It is heavier and slower than most Scout Mechs, but its capacity to sustain and dish out damage more than makes up for this.

Capabilities

The Shadow Hawk Scout is able to find hidden units and report its findings back to its commanders. It also features a TAG unit for targeting artillery strikes.

Deployment

Limited to replacement for older Shadow Hawks and other medium weight mechs.
