Overview:
    First built in 2550 as one of the SLDF's earliest assault 'Mechs, the Striker has proved its
    worth many times over. As technological advancements enabled the Star League to build
    heavier assault 'Mechs, the Striker was relegated to second line and garrison units. Over
    the long centuries of the Succession Wars the number of Strikers left in the Inner Sphere
    steadily decreased, and at present less than 300 Strikers remain operational. The primary
    production facility for the Striker was destroyed during a Kurita raid in 2867, and no new
    Strikers have been produced in recent years.

Capabilities:
    Built with the largest fusion engine available at the time of its initial design, the
    Striker was the fastest and heaviest 'Mech in the Star League inventory until advances in
    technology displaced it. The massive weight of the Striker's engine limited the weapons the
    design team could install, but they gave the 'Mech the heaviest arsenal it could carry. The
    primary weapon is a HellStar PPC, supplemented by a large laser to give the Striker a
    knockout one-two punch. Secondary weapons are an AC-5 with one ton of ammunition and three
    medium lasers. The Striker also has fifteen heat sinks and thirteen and a half tons of
    armor.
    
    
    
    Variants
    
    The STC-3CS is a restoration of Comstar's few remaining Striker battlemechs to utilize them
    more effectively against blakist forces. The standard PPC has been replaced with a heavy
    model, and the armor protection has been lightened and improved via swapping to ferro
    fibrous armor. Instead of a backup autocannon five, the decision was made to replace the
    weapon with a light PPC, offering similar capability but with less weight needed. The
    standard fusion engine has been retained, along with the trio of medium lasers. All heat
    sinks have been replaced by double heat sink models similar to the STC-2D, and increased to
    19 in total to handle the taxing heavy PPC.
