DAD-3C Daedalus
Status: FASA official
DAD-3C Daedalus
IDC based the design of its medium-weight 'Mech on the Phoenix Hawk, updating it with technological innovations such as Endo Steel internal structure and an XL engine. Equipped with a large pulse laser and several missile racks, the Daedalus gives its best performance at long range, and it has the maneuverability to keep its distance.
"Grimjet"
By stripping out the missile racks and retrofitting extra lasers, Drago Alldredge used his modified Daedalus for hit-and-run attacks at close range, often finishing off his opponents with the dreaded "Death from Above" attack.
[Editor's Notes: Sheet shows 2 Medium Lasers (1 in each arm) with no Endo Steel, making the Mech several tons overweight; jump jets are unbalanced in both versions. Carries 200 rounds for the MG in LT.]

Drago Alldredge used his modified Daedalus for hit-and-run
attacks at close range, often finishing off his opponents with
the dreaded "Death from Above" attack.
[Editor's Notes: Endo Steel rearranged from the DAD-3C version; armor added to the legs to make DFAs a real possibility, with heat sinks added to make firing all those new lasers sane in Solaris arenas. Jump Jets rebalanced.]
