================================================================================================
Overview:
    An idea of Khan Natalie Breen that was put into motion by Perigard Zalman, the King Cobra
    omnimech heavily reflected the experiences of the Steel Vipers after the Battle of Tukayyid.
    The older Crossbow was showing its age, and the clan had not been fast enough to secure its
    objectives. What was needed was a design capable of bringing serious firepower, at speeds
    that could outstrip other clan omnimechs, while still being tough enough to take damage from
    all directions. Weighing in at 60 tons, the King Cobra sports a large New Kent Type VII 360
    XL engine, a Cobra Endosteel frame, and nine and a half tons of V3 Ferro-Fibrous armor.
    Twelve built in double heat sinks allow for a total pod space of 22 tons.

Capabilities:
    The A configuration of the King Cobra reflects that of the Crossbow A, although with a more
    balanced weapons array. Two Streak SRM-4's are mounted on each arm, and fed by a two tons of
    ammunition. Two ER Large Lasers are mounted, one in each side torso. A Medium Pulse Laser is
    placed in the head, and two additional heat sinks are mounted, providing a relatively cool
    configuration. While ideal at close to medium range, the King Cobra A can still operate as a
    harasser at longer ranges.
