Overview:
    (Originally post in 2002: https://mordel.net/barandgrill.php?redirect=viewtopic&t=559)
    
    The Dragonet is part of the rearmament efforts of the Draconis Combine. It is a redesign of
    the venerable Dragon line, but attempts to reduce the cost while retaining the weapons
    package and speed by reducing the overall mass.

Capabilities:
    Engineers attained the reduction in cost by reducing the Dragonet to a 45 ton chassis,
    constructed out of the extra light endo-steel. On top of this is the 9 ton armor shell that
    is unfortunately 1 ton thinner then its 60 ton counter part.
    
    The weapons layout come in two varients: one is a LBX autocannon, backed by two medium
    lasers, and a LRM 10; and the second mounts a PPC, with two medium lasers, and a LRM 10.
    Both version are equipped with CASE in there Right Torso.
    
    While less armored then the 60 ton version, the Dragonet's are about one million c-bills
    less then the Dragon. Allowing more of the Dragonets to be constructed per dragon.
