Overview:
The Wolf Trap, a 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 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 Mechs 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.
Capabilities:
With the recent devolpment of the C3 units, the Draconis Combine has been refitting many
designs to allow them to be used in C3 equipped units. The removal of one medium laser has
allowed the installation of the C3 slave and for this design to be incorporated into those
new Draconis Combine C3 units.

Comment:
The C3-variant of the WFT-1 looses some short range firepower but can be of good use in a C3- network: It can use its speed to close and send targeting data back to its lancemates or it can stay back and bring its longrange weapons to bear with precise targeting data delivered from the front.

Notice the resemblence to the Centurion in loadout ? Well this tried and true weapon's combo can work, just watch the ammo levels.
Once the ammo is gone, its time to run. The C3 slave will however make most of your Slug shot counts.

Comment:
A nice recon C3 mech, but not anything that can stand up to a sustained pounding. The LRMs make a nice light support weapon for the rest of the lance, via the C3 link. The LBX will let the mech deliver either a solid punch, or nickel-and-dime the target enough for the medium laser to open up some holes. Keep an eye on your ammo levels, though. This mech is definitely not built for marathon battles.
