================================================================================================
Overview:
    A tech test-bed for emerging technologies, the Bulldog (SO) is a rare example of cooperation
    between the Federated Suns and Draconis Combine. Developed to destroy hidden bases in
    hostile environments, it was moderately successful and later moved into a production model.
    This version uses their respective signature, newly developed equipment - the C3 Boosted for
    the FS, and the Chaff Pod for DCMS. When the brief moment of cooperation passed, these
    technologies were removed and the powerplant swapped to Standard Fusion. Light PPC and
    Enhanced LRMs remain, as their tactical impact was considered minimal at best.

Capabilities:
    Environmental Sealing and HarJel sold by Clan Sea Fox allow function in hazards and airless
    vacuum. Range is considered necessary, as battles in these environments favor the one who
    strikes first. The C3BS resists interference, either natural or electronic, and the Chaff
    Pod is there to help ensure survival in dangerous situations.

Deployment:
    As the price tag is equal or excessive to actual Battlemechs, they are rarely found in
    well-funded garrisons defending critical resources on dangerous moons and planets, like
    strategic germanium. Occasional well-heeled mercenaries will also purchase them on contract,
    as the expanded operational abilities are quite useful.

Variants:
    The "production model" trades the Lyran "Blackwell" 240 LFE for standard SFE. It loses the
    Chaff Pod and C3BS to achieve this.
