================================================================================================
Overview:
Built as a cheap assault omnimech for export to spheroids, the Nosferatu is built with
survivability and durability in mind. Rather than mount an XL engine like most clan
machines, Clan Diamond Shark would instead choose a clan manufactured standard fusion
engine, mounting a total of 12 internal double heat sinks. This saved a considerable amount
of manufacturing time, but also some The endosteel frame is shared with the Phoenix Hawk
IIC, but the armor layout is very different, using standard manufactured plating sourced
from of all things, Bergan Industries classic Compound 12A2. Clan Diamond Shark won the
right to both purchase, repair, and license produce limited quantities of this armored
plating from Clan Ghost Bear in 3053.
Weighing in at 80 tons, the Nosferatu's Type 10 280 Standard Fusion engine propels it to a
maximum speed of 64kph, an acceptable speed for an 80 ton battlemech in the Inner Sphere. 30
tons of weight devoted to omnipods exceeds the Gargoyle, but is less than what could
potentially be done with an XL engine. With 14.5 tons of armor plating, the Nosferatu has an
impressive amount of protection built onto the frame. As a cheap alternative to more
impressive standard machines like the Mad Cat Mk II or omnimechs like the Gargoyle, the
Nosferatu has carved an interesting and profitable niche both inside the eventual Clan Sea
Fox toumen and in smaller mercenary units across the inner sphere. A well armored assault
mech able to fulfill a variety of roles while keeping up with most mechs in its weight
bracket and many heavy mechs, the Nosferatu shines as a second line battlemech for clan
forces or a hard hitting front line machine for spheroids.
Capabilities:
While not possessing the overwhelming firepower of many other assault weight clan
battlemechs, the prime configuration of the Nosferatu is a dependably dangerous brawler for
warriors able to handle the heat output of its weaponry. Two ER Large Lasers mounted in the
arms and a trio of Medium Pulse Lasers in the left torso are all linked to a clan targeting
computer, providing superb accuracy at every range. An LRM20 with two tons of ammunition
gives a flexible option for engagements at longer and medium ranges. An additional six heat
sinks are mounted to the battlemech, and simply put cannot handle the heat of every weapon
fired at once.
