The Mad Dog (VUL-C) is a 60 ton clan heavy mech. It is also known as the Vulture.
[edit] Blurb
So different in appearance from its counterparts that Inner Sphere MechWarriors originally thought it was a separate 'Mech, Alternate Configuration C of the Vulture does not even look like a vulture. In place of missile racks and lasers, the Vulture C carries two powerful Gauss Rifles. So bulky are these weapons that this model must carry the ammunition in its puny arms. Weight restrictions prevent the model C from carrying any other weapons. Only by careful study of battle vids did strategists identify the leg and torso structure of this design as a Vulture.
[edit] Description
The Mad Dog-C mounts a gauss rifle in each arm, with 16 rounds in each arm-mounted ammo bay. It has a very large number of heatsinks, considering it can generate only 14 heat, even with two engine crits. Whats more, the low ammo is rather a hindrance, leaving it defenceless when it runs out. Quite why the design exists is somewhat of a mystery, as Gauss ammo is expensive, and the twin ER-PPCs of the Stooping Hawk-A are more effective.
[edit] Combat record
15 Mad Dogs have seen service, with 4 surviving. The design has been responsible for 9 kills (20,377 BV).
