================================================================================================
Overview:
    A shorter-range cousin to its originator, the 1H arose from the necessities of close urban
    combat in New Avalon and New Syrtis. Originally intended as a refit, the degree to which it
    was well received convinced Clan Sea Fox that there were greater opportunities available,
    and the refit was formalized and improved into the 1H design. After a few twists and turns,
    it entered production in time to earn a following of die-hard pilots.

Capabilities:
    The stealth armor is removed for clan-grade ferro fibrous, and an inner-sphere endo steel
    chassis (installed after noting clan-grade offered no advantages here) are the structural
    changes. The engine is replaced with a standard clan extra-light, freeing up space and
    adding resilience. The key change is the replacement of the rotary autocannon with a class
    30 assault gauss rifle, reducing long-distance ability for the ability to drown nearby
    enemies in a hail of nickel-iron slugs. The ER lasers are unchanged, the CASE system is
    upgraded to CASE II, and an extra heat sink covers all additional heating, although the ECM
    suite had to be removed.
