================================================================================================
Overview:
    This is one of the prototypes (no. 014) of new DCMS medium mech for close range combat.
    Prototype no. 014 was used as test-bed for targeting computer that was somehow acquired from
    FC forces. The scientists wanted to see the computer in action, so they fitted it to first
    machine at hand - half-finished Wakizashi.

Capabilities:
    Three standard medium and one ER large lasers are tied to the targeting computer to provide
    accurate firepower and enough heat for TSM, if the pilot turns some heat sinks off. The mech
    is equipped with enough double heat-sinks to be able to use all it's weapons effectively,
    but careful heat management required to keep the heat high enough for Myomer activation. The
    sword itself is reliable close-assault weapon, but TSM technology turns it to deadly
    addition to mech's arsenal. The MRMs replaced second laser mounted in right arm on standard
    3K model because of the limitations of targeting computer installed.

Deployment:
    The WKI-3X prototype no. 014 can be encountered on test-grounds around Luthien.
