================================================================================================
Overview:
    Used by the Word of Blake, the TDk-7W2 is the result of an excess number of Ultra AC-10s
    from the Legacy construction  program.

Capabilities:
    Unlike the TDK-7W,  the W2 was less planned out and more make use of available resources
    expediently.  This largely meant the Gauss rifles were replaced on a 1 for 1 basis.  The
    bulkier weapons did displace ammo storage unfortunately resulting in janky ammo feeds being
    run through the mech.  Other secondary systems slotted for 7W production such as the
    electronics were retained.  The net result was additional mechs that could be fielded.
    Firepower remained mostly the same as the original Thunder Hawk.  The loss in maximum range
    was more then compensated by improved accuracy at range thanks to the C3 network.

Deployment:
    Overall,  the design worked but never became common.  It was a limited production run
    brought about by logistical imbalances as the Jihad progressed.
