==Overview:==
     The Bai\'ling or NOIR in the Federated Sun is among the latest in Capellen
mech construction. It seems that this mech is the direct opponent to the
recently constructed Soldat built by StarCorps Industries on Crofton. Matching
its opponent design in both speed and versatility, the NOIR is heavier and
more heavily armed. Thou using far more advanced technologies then the Soldat,
the NOIR still falls only 1.3 million c-bills more expensive.

==Capabilities:==
     The heart of the NOIR [or Black in French] is the Liao Stealth Armor
surrounding a Endo-Steel Core. Within this core sits an older generation GM
250 Fusion engine that allows the NOIR to achieve speeds up to 86 kph and
powers Chevron I jump jets capable of leaps up to 90 meters, nearly half that
of the Soldat\'s 150 meters. The NOIR maybe less agile then the Soldat, yet it
carries a more powerful weapons load in the way of a ERPPC with an
interestingly designed under-slung missile launcher reminiscent to the grenade
launchers found on modern assault rifles. The ERPPC has a longer range and
higher armor penetration then its Soldat counterpart\'s ER Large Laser. Should
an opponent decide to close the distance to negate any benefits the Stealth
Armor provides, they will be met by both the Short Range Missile launcher and
a Medium Pulse Laser effectively allowing the NOIR to cover all of its bases
so to speak. Should enemy fire penetrate the mechs armor and cause a critical
failure of the SRM\'s ammo bin, a combination of complicated linkage to the
weapon and CASE in the left torso helps to prevent the mech from destroying
itself from the inside out and still keep the main weapon operation, thou it
is safe to say that all pilots are ordered to withdraw at this point so the
unit can be repaired rather then salvaged.

==Variants:==
     No known variants at this time.

==Deployment==
     The initial run has been showing up in front-line medium units in St.
Ives and along the Capellen-Federated Sun boarder.
