Overview:
The Wolf Trap, the Federated Commonwealth codename for House Kurita's answer to the
Wolfhound, is a rubric likely to stick, even though the Draconis Combine will doubtless give
it some Japanese name. This 'Mech has been on the drawing boards for years, only recently
entering extensive field testing. One of the first completely new designs to emerge since
the recovery of Star League technology, it will be a bellwether to see if other realms, such
as the Free Worlds League and Capellan Confederation, rush to produce new designs instead of
revamping old ones.
Nearing production at a top-security wing of Luthien Armor Works, the Wolf Trap is
expected to be a blend of proven systems and advanced technology. Prototypes have
extra-light engines and Endo Steel internal structure. The advanced engine provides good
speed, and so the designers have not equipped the Wolf Trap with jump jets. The weapons mix
is not one that generates great amounts of heat, and so the Wolf Trap prototypes do not have
bulky double heat sinks.
The 'Mech's weaponry is designed to deliver heavy damage at long range and follow up
with even more firepower as the range closes. The Victory 23R Medium Lasers and Shigunga
Long-Range Missiles are proven systems, in use on many 'Mechs across Kurita space. The
Imperator Code Red LB 10-X Autocannon is still an official secret, promising but untested.
If the prototypes continue to perform well, the Wolf Trap is expected to begin production
within six months.

Comment:
This 'Mech gives me a good reason to dislike CN9-Ds. Not that they do fare so much better against it, it clearly shows that there is a way to make the same machine for less money. The weapons mix can deal some good damage while producing little heat (as long as the ammo lasts) and thanks to new technologies the WFT has a good range. The armor could be thicker around side torsos because single lucky GR hit can kill the 'Mech. WFT is a fast and well armed machine, but be aware that it has weaknesses and try to prevent the enemy from exploiting them.

A fast and heavily armed hunter with some serious range!
I like this even though it has a XL.
It can outgun or outrun its opponents.

Basically a lighter 3050 era Centurion, the loadout is the same, speed is the same and just about everything is the same.
The only difference is that this thing mounts 7.5 tons of armor while the Centy mounts only 8.5 tons. Ton for ton and C-bill for c-bill, this is the more efficient machine when compared to the Davion centies.
A good GI mech for the Dracs although its specifically designed for Wolfhound hunting.

Its a good mech, and a jack of all trades. Still it was built to kill wolfhounds and it is little better than a 40-60 chance of pulling it off.
It shows promise in most other endevours as its armour is quite nice for the weight. The speed is rather good as well for a medium but is bought at the price of an XL engine. So keep it guarded after it wins its first fight.

Excellent machine. I've used it in many a campaign and always liked it. Also like the WFT-C cause I like to use C3 coordination by company.
