CODE PXH-L1-S Pheonix Hawk Chassis: Unknown Power Plant: XL 270 XL Cruising Speed: 64.5 Maximum Speed: 96.75 Jump Jets: Rawlings 45 Jump Capacity: 180 meters Armor: Standard Armament: 1 Wolf Agressor 9 AMS 3 Defiance B4M Medium Lasers 1 Xatron Mk VII Gauss Rifle Manufacturer: Unknown Primary Factory: Unknown Communications System: Neil 6000 Targeting and Tracking System: Octagon Tartrac System C Overview: The Pheonix Hawk PXH-L1-S is based off of the Federated Suns PXH-3D. The L1-S variant boasts the same speed and jump capabilities, while also retaining its somewhat low level of standard armour. Aside from having the same targetting and tracking system, and communications system, the L1-S and 3D's similarities stop. While the 3D was originally an energy based 'mech, mounting dual ER Large Lasers and a pair of medium pulse lasers for support, the L1-S mounts a single Clan Gauss Rifle as its primary weapon. To provide close range support and some backup should ammunition run dry, the L1-S mounts 3 I.S. medium lasers in the right torso. Captain Adam Wolf of the Legionnaires modified the 3D to the L1-S in order to provide his unit with a fast and agile sniping 'mech. Capabilities: The PXH-L1-S Pheonix Hawk is primarily designed to snipe at enemies from a safe distance. The extreme range of the Clan Gauss rifle gives the diminuitive medium 'mech the range and firepower needed for sniping, while remaining out of range of most enemy weapons. The inclusion of a Clan AMS to replace the old I.S. AMS originally mounted in the design gives the L1-S additional staying power that is much appreciated when looking at the mere 8 tons of standard armour mounted on the 'mech. Although the 128 points of armour is quite significant for the medium 'mech when engaging most medium and light 'mechs, the armour doesn't stand up to the rigors of extended battles. Only equipped with 16 rounds for the Gauss rifle, the Pheonix Hawk L1-S pilot needs to watch ammo consumption carefully during extended engagements or they may be forced to rely on the 3 medium lasers in their left torso. Although versatile in their own right, the Inner Sphere medium lasers simply are simply outmatched in both range and firepower by most modern weapons. Deployment: Although the Pheonix Hawk itself is still rather widely used in various different variants, mostly due to the sudden influx of new variants during the FedCom Civil War, the L1-S is one of a kind. A custom modification made by the mercenary company known as the Legionnaires. Battle History: There are currently no actual combat records available for the Pheonix Hawk PXH-L1-S, due to its rarity and lack of actual live combat encounters. Although battle simulations indicate that, when properly supported by its lance, the L1-S is extremely effective at its sniping role, and can help turn the tide of battle, both by critically damaging a unit, as well as breaking their morale. Known Variants: The PXH-L1-S is itself a variant of the venerable Pheonix Hawk design which dates back to the Star League.
