==Overview:==
The Swiftwind mech is some of a rare bird, it's size alone makes it an oddity and to some a liabilty. Others see it as the premier scout or hit and run radier.
Once former Fed-Com general felt these kinds of mechs would make excellent trainers and possibly excellent penal battalion mechs. Luckly his plans to bring this about was cut short when word leaked of his relationship with a student at the academy and the insuing scandal rocked the whole planet as well. Seems our asteamed general was quite the ladies man, and the roads of conquests went in all directs and age groups.
But seeing promise in the Swiftwind the AFFC ordered a batch 500 built for use on Periphery border worlds and as garassion mechs for miltia and police forces on worlds that had a tendecny to riot over the smallest things.
==Capabilities:==
The Swiftwind's main advantage is it's speed. If it tries to fight it will die, that seems to be enough for most of the pilots to come in fast unload with it's lasers and get out just as fast as they came in.
Running away to fight another day is their motto.
==Variants:==
Of the 500 made 5 were sent to NAIS for testing and to see if anything could be gained from their continued use.
Rumors suggest that NAIS has cooked up some even faster versions with MASC, TSM and engine superchargers on them, but no offical word as been released on the subject.
