Mangonel MNL-4S

The MNL-4S is a 70-ton brawler that fights in close, a 3088 rework of the 3079 MNL-3L skirmisher, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Where the MNL-3L carries four ER medium lasers in the arms, the MNL-4S pairs a Medium Pulse Laser with an ER Medium Laser in each arm, and the twin Light Gauss Rifles in the right torso give way to a single HAG/40. The design mixes Inner Sphere and Clan technology on its Inner Sphere endo steel chassis, and like its predecessor it presents minimal, weapon-pod arms without hands and is known as a maintenance-intensive design. Arc-Royal MechWorks builds it at Arc-Royal.
