================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Frog Crab is a slow-moving missile boat designed by Cosara Industries, designed to be a
    heavy fire support unit to work as operating partners with the other 'mechs

Capabilities:
    The Frog Crab is equipped with an imposing twin LRM-20 missile launchers enhanced with an
    attached Artemis IV system, of whom can be fired repeatedly thanks to the 'mechs 11 double
    heat sinks. Most of the 'mech's weapons are mounted in its strange, horizontal claws,
    protected by a plate opening on a hinge more akin to the pod covers found on an Archer than
    the protective large laser covers found on the claws of the Crab. Should the 'mech find
    itself in close-quarters combat, it can defend itself with a rather meager armenent
    consisting of 2 Streak SRM-6 launchers and a single ER medium laser.
    
    The 'mech is built on an Endo Steel chassis and is clad in 15 and a half tons of light
    ferro-fibrous armor. Its low, squat and wide profile is reminiscent of those found on the
    King Crab. The 'mech is propelled by the tried and tested Pitban 240 engine.

Deployment:
    It is unknown if the Frog Crab has engaged in any major engagements.

Variants:
    The Frog Crab has no known variants.

Notable MechWarriors:
    The Frog Crab has not had any notable MechWarriors.
