Recognition notes
The Tempest TMP-3M2 "Storm Tempest" is a 65-ton brawler that closes to short range on a 260 XL fusion engine, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65, with a jump range of 120 metres. Its arms carry a Large Pulse Laser and a Light Gauss Rifle paired with an ER Small Laser, while a Streak SRM 6 fills the left torso. Three ER Medium Lasers round out the arsenal, two in the center torso and one in the head, giving the design fire from nearly every mounting point on the chassis. Endo steel structure and standard armor cover the frame, cooled by 12 double heat sinks. Irian BattleMechs Unlimited builds it at Angell II, with additional production at Irian.
