Overview:
The Wasp was the first recon 'Mech ever to be mass-produced. Over the last six centuries,
the Wasp has served in every House army. This fact made negotiations run smoother between
the Vicore group and Hellespont Industrials, and paved the way for the CCAF's approval and
financing of the light 'Mech's construction.
Vicore's goals for the Wasp were simple: to be both cost effective and innovative.
Hellespont industrials would have to make only minor changes to their Wasp line to produce
this new version. The Strategios took one look at the new Wasp and immediately jumped at the
chance to add another stealth BattleMech to their TO&Es.
Capabilities:
This new model incorporates Hellespont's endo-steel which, with the inclusion of a standard
fusion engine and the maximum possible amount of stealth armor, gives the new Wasp an
incredible survivability for the lightest of BattleMechs-a quality absolutely necessary in a
scout 'Mech. In designing the 'Mech's armor layout, the project engineers paid close
attention to better protecting the Wasp's joints. They also relocated the jump jets to the
torso-a fact that not only provided better protection for the 'Mech but actually saved
costs. At the same time, though a relatively minor move, the designers chose to incorporate
only standard heat sinks to cut down on expenses-and to make use of the CCAF's huge
stockpile of these heat sinks, a stockpile that had barely been touched in the past decade.
Finally, the Wasp was equipped with a pilot ejection system similar to that on the Phoenix
Hawk.
Like the original, this new Wasp is only lightly armed, carrying an extended-range
medium laser as its primary armament. In a somewhat controversial move, the CCAF authorized
the addition of a single Marian rocket launcher to the design, giving it an additional punch
to help it extract itself from difficult situations. When added to its high mobility and
stealth characteristics, the weapons loadout makes the Wasp 3L an extremely effective and
survivable light recon 'Mech.
Variants
With the development of this new Wasp, we have solidified confirmation of the Word
Blake's involvement. Our operatives sighted a Blakist Level II of Wasps, painted in typical
Black Warrior schemes, off-loading from a Union-class DropShip on Circinus. Now, with the
Capellans producing this design, we are pushing harder to find the link between Word of
Blake and Vicore. So far we have found no solid leads or facts.
Both the MAF and the TDF are building this Capellan design under license from
Hellespont, though it took years of upgrades to the Taurus Territorial factories on Taurus
before that facility could work with the Capellans' stealth armor. The Lyrans are building
their own design on Furillo, mounting a light engine, two extended-range medium lasers, a
TAG designator and a Guardian ECM suite. Archernar on New Avalon has received a license from
Defiance Industries to produce the same design.
Deployment:
The first production run of Wasps was completed in late July. Within the CCAF, these first
units were assigned into lances with Raven 4Ls and the new Phoenix Hawk which, along with
the new Stinger or Sha Yu, would form light Shadow Lances-"Ying Qiang".

Comment:
All in all it isn't a bad design: Acceptable speed and mobility due to the jump jets, acceptable armor, good weapon, no heat problems even if jumping all around and some electronics to support your lance-mates or artillery units far away. But i cannot give it more than an average rating because of two features: Both lasers in one arm call for a weaponless Wasp soon. The light engine makes it rather expensive (even though not as expensive as an XL) while delivering only 1 ton. I would rather drop the TAG or the ECM to put a standard engine in (and half a ton of armor if dropping the ECM).

If House Liao wasn't sober designing the 3L Steiner designers were on crack while designing this.
It's too heavily packed with electronics and still tries to do battle with its twin ER MLs. It isn't cheap either and despite that has absolutely pathetic armour.
Another one for the scrap heap.

I knocked off a point just for the laser placement. For a twenty-ton 'mech losing an arm isn't just a possibility...it's pretty much a certainty!
It's overcooled too...those economical Steiners ought to have the sense to have saved some c-bills and gone with the single heat sinks here.

A slight improvement over the original. The light engine doesn't really seem worht the extra risk and cost IMO but to each there own.

Alright, but the armor's too light.The speed is low but made acceptable by the jump jets. The ECM and TAG are a good combo, and they'll make this into a good spotter. The weapons are good enough for the job, but the lasers should be in two different locations, so you don't lose them both at once. Good overall, but weak armor lets it down.
