Technical Readout: 3055
"The Hammer's top speed of 81 kph matches the top
running speed of the Valkyrie. Because the 'Mech was
specifically designed to counter the Valkyrie, this was a
necessity. The only argument for a lower speed was
quickly eliminated when the engineers tested jump jets
and found that the stress on the BattleMech's frame was
beyond acceptable parameters.
Because of that testing, however, the engineers
decided to use endo steel. The savings of weight from the
infrastructure allowed the placement of more armor over
the volatile missle surfaces on the 'Mech's torso."
[Editor's Notes: This is of course the jump jet testbed
version. The second paragraph above reveals that this
early prototype didn't use ES and had less armor, while 'lower speed' most likely means that the jump jet weight was paid for by decreased movement, to 4/6/4.]
