[edit] Blurb

The Blood Kite faithfully conforms to every single point required by Khan Ceana Boques. Doing away with such expensive equipment and higher-priced weapons as the extra-light engine, PPCs and rapid-fire autocannons, the Blood Kite employs only extra-light internal structure material in its construction and uses only the lowest-cost weapons. With regard to survivability, the Blood Kite's 85-ton frame mounts the maximum armor protection available to that weight class. In addition, per standard Clan procedure, all ammunition is protected with CASE. Finally, the Blood Kite's jump jets give it enough maneuverability to survive where other, more cumbersome machines would likely perish. Three ER large lasers and three LRM 15s, each launcher equipped with excessive amounts of ammo, allow the Blood Kite to stay in the field long after most 'Mechs' ammo bins have run dry. Finally, the placement and use of weapons enable this 'Mech to fire the bulk of its weapons at all times. Though heat build-up can occur, it is minimal compared with that suffered by most other 'Mechs of the same weight class.

[edit] Description

The BDK-2 is a total rework of the base variant, replacing the (C) ER Large Lasers with (C) ER PPCs, removing all the SRM racks, removing one of the LRM racks, but adding (C) Artemis IV FCS to the remaining racks and giving the mech a (C) Light Active Probe.

[edit] Combat record

There are currently 14 BDK-2s active, with a further 64 having been destroyed. They have made 116 kills (222,878 BV).

[edit] Production

Blueprints for the BDK are available to Clan empires from your local Comstar dealership.
