Icestorm 2

The Icestorm 2 is a 25-ton striker that fights close in, cruising at 130 km/h and topping out near 194. Where the original Icestorm scouted with a single ER medium laser in the right arm, this configuration carries a Heavy Medium Laser there and a second in the right torso, doubling its close-range punch. The head-mounted SRM 2 of the base machine gives way to an ER Flamer, and the standard TAG in the center torso is replaced by a Light TAG. Ferro-fibrous armor replaces the original's standard plating, and the ten heat sinks are now double-strength rather than single. The rugged, field-serviceable frame carries over from the earlier model. It is built as a refit at the W-7 Facilities on Weingarten.
