With this in mind, and the fact that they needed new units to field against Katherine's armies, Archangel Technologies completed trials for and fielded a new heavy mech, which they dubbed the Wolf Hunter, to serve as a counterpart to the Wolfhound (and to hunt the mechs of Clan Wolf).ÙThe Wolf Hunter was designed as a mech that could battle with the best the Clans or Inner Sphere could offer, and it doesn't disappoint in that regard. The centerpiece is the new and deadly heavy gauss rifle, mounted in the torso. As one of the lightest mechs to mount such a devastating weapon, it packs an amazing punch on the battlefield, and carries enough ammo to be useful in a fight. In addition, it also wields an extended-range large laser and a pair of extended-range medium lasers, as well as the heat sinks to fire them all with minimal overheat. Eleven and a half tons of armor provide superb protection, while the XL engine it uses gives it ample speed to engage or disengage from mechs of its own weight class.   %Currently the Wolf Hunter has been deployed in Lyran Alliance units, mostly in the forces that are currently on border worlds with the Jade Falcon and Wolf clans. In addition, the mech has been made available to the Kell Hounds, Wolf's Dragoons, and Clan Wolf-in-Exile for purchase and trade.
