Type/Model: Crusader IIC
Tech: Clan / 3050
Config: Biped BattleMech
Rules: Level 2, Standard design

Mass: 65 tons
Chassis: Clan Modified Heavy Type X Endo Steel
Power Plant: 325 Clan Type XL Fusion
Walking Speed: 54.0 km/h
Maximum Speed: 86.4 km/h
Jump Jets: None
Jump Capacity: 0 meters
Armor Type: Forging OTR17b with CASE Ferro-Fibrous
Armament:
2 Type XXVI "Great Bow" LRM 20s w/ Artemis IV
2 Series XII Machine Guns
2 Series 2a Mk. 5 ER Medium Lasers
2 MPA-14 Mod. 12a Streak SRM 6s
Manufacturer: Kinn MechWorks I
Location: Hector
Communications System: Hector CC-22E
Targeting & Tracking System: C-12 Mk. III with Artemis IV FCS

==Overview:==
The CRD-3R Crusader had a long, successful production history, and numerous variants of the basic design served in the armed forces of the Star League. When the SLDF left the Inner Sphere the need for this work horse was again found and the Crusader was able to rise and give service once again in the noble cause to the Clans as it did for the Star League.

==Capabilities:==
The Crusader has a well-deserved reputation as a reliable, versatile 'Mech. Commonly found in command and fire lances, the 'Mech is equally at home alongside Marauders and Thunderbolts in close-assault units. Some versions have even served as scout 'Mechs, but this is rare.

The combination of Great Bow LRM and MPA-14 Mod. 12a Streak SRM launchers proved a potent weapon system, giving the Crusader excellent firepower at both long and short ranges.

The Crusader's original Hawk SRMs and Phoenix LRMs are back but this time in the form of better guidence systems like the Artimes IV Fire Control System and Streak Lock and Fire Systems.

The unique location of the MPA-14 Mod. 12a Streak on the 'Mech's hips gives the Crusader both a stable firing platform and a good field of fire.
The arm-mounted Longbow launchers caused trouble in earlier models, however the Clans have fixed this with the use of better internal sturcture and the Great Bow launchers.

Overall this truely awesome machine has become an even more effective war machine under the Clans.

==Battle History:==
The Crusader has long and valiant battle history and no singal paragraph or short write up would do it justice.

==Deployment==
The Crusader is found mainly in Wolf and Jade Falcon second line units, with the Ghost Bears having the next highist group of the mech. The Smoke Jaguars had a few in their totem but all reports suggest most of these were lost in the fight on Huntress.

look out boys and girls. --says the inner sphere lance commander-- that there is a crusader on steroids.

ah comeon those things are outdated --says a pilot in a 3060 mech-- it doesnt even have a guass rifle.

--as his words are puncuated by the sudden impact of 36 missiles on his 12 million dollar mech, followed by the certain detination of his guass rifle. ending with burning wreckage as his engine was reduced to slag--

--commander-- any further comments from green row?

------------------------------

great job, i like.
