The Heavy PPC is the result of Draconis Combine engineers attempting to achieve the raw kinetic power of the (C) ER PPC at any cost. They succeeded in creating a PPC variant that has equal firepower to the Clan variant, but is however bulkier, and retains the limitations of the standard Inner Sphere PPC. The Heavy PPC is still a breakthrough for the Successor States, and another step in bridging the technology gap with the Clans.

Like the Clan ER PPC, the Heavy PPC is capable of destroying an enemy 'mech in a single shot, if it hits the head location.
