================================================================================================
Overview:
    A curious refit of an old Fedcom civil war era Fafnir that resembles a clan tech upgraded
    5X.
    
    Which had its standard Heavy Gauss rifles swapped out for the newly invented improved
    version for better damage profile across its range, two locally produced Clan spec ERPPCs
    coupled with 14 total locally produced clan spec double heat sinks make heat management a
    breeze for most mechwarriors.
    
    To feed the voracious gauss rifles, five tons of ammo were provided that is considered
    barely sufficient for a normal combat patrol, but given how much damage each of the shot
    will do, it was considered enough for its role.
    
    In order to ensure the space and weight of the systems of the mech don't overwhelm the
    frame, its structure was upgraded clan wolf in exile sold Endo-Composite material. This
    coupled with sixteen tons of standard Ferro Fibrous armor brought on the open market from
    the Diamond Sharks gives it the most possible free tonnage for use while maximize space
    needed for its massive weapons. A salvaged clan spec 300 XL from a downed Jupiter powers its
    massive 100 ton frame to a middling 54 kph.
    
    This was a showcase of the ability of neutrality by the manufacturers on Kelsberg to source
    technologies across the breadth of its neighbors, and has attracted some interest from
    Defiance Industries.
