The Dart DRT-6S is an Inner Sphere 25 ton light mech.
[edit] Blurb
After the Commando and the Valkyrie were designated as the standard light BattleMechs of the Federated Commonwealth, several battle reports have suggested that the high amounts of ammunition aboard these 'Mechs limit their effectiveness in tight combat situations. Coventry Metal Works, in an obvious public relations move, suggested a new design to the Federated Commonwealth military for their consideration. Much to Coventry's surprise, the Office of Procurement accepted the design and ordered immediate construction.
[edit] Description
The DRT-6S is an open market variant upon the House Steiner-specific Dart-4S. It trades the head mounted Medium Laser for an extra ton of armour, extra survivability at the expense of being able to shoot as you run away. However, since the Dart is so quick, running away backwards to keep the two lasers facing the enemy isn't such an issue.
[edit] Combat record
Twelve DRT-6Ss have seen combat, and all of them died without scoring a single kill.
