Overview:
Using stolen Improved Jump Jet schematics from Clan Wolf-in-Exile upon taking Arc Royal, the
Jade Falcons debuted the mostly-Clantech Verdant Eagle as a next-generation Light OmniMech.
Intended primarily for scouting and striker configurations, the design is configured for
jump range first and foremost, and leaves only a bit of tonnage for weapons.
The Prime configuration is designed as a scout first and foremost, not intended to see true
combat. As such, it is typically either given to MechWarrior sibkos for field training
purposes or to those the Falcons deem unworthy of seeing frontline combat, such as unproven
freebirths and all dezgra.
Capabilities:
An IS-grade Compact Gyro is the only IS-grade component on the Verdant Eagle platform, meant
to make room for the additional Improved Jump Jets of its Prime configuration. It also
mounts a Small Cockpit as to make OmniPod space for a potential head weapon. A Partial Wing
and four Improved Jump Jets are hard-installed, providing a large default jump range.
Said Prime configuration mounts 4 additional Falcon's Wing Imrpoved Jump Jets, allowing it
to cover massive distances in the air - though still coming short compared to Land-Air
'Mechs for obvious reasons. The only weapon of the configuration is a Series 14 Medium Pulse
Laser, meant to allow the 'Mech to defend itself long enough to jump away from aggressors.
And for its scouting role, a Light Active Probe and Light TAG are installed in the torso.
Deployment:
Verdant Eagles were seen in advance forces for the Jade Falcon push to Terra, providing
valuable intel for the Clanners as they fought against the ailing Republic of the Sphere.
