Overview:
    Like its descendents, the OTT-4Rb Ostscout is the epitome of a recon 'Mech, but with the
    inclusion of experimental tech, it is even more effective in this role. Although extremely
    capable, very few of this model of Ostscout were actually constructed prior to the fall of
    the Star League, and all were assigned to the most elite Royal units. All were destroyed in
    the various battles of the Liberation of Terra.

Capabilities:
    Starting with the framework of what eventually became the OTT-7J, the engine was replaced
    with an extra-light engine, which allowed mass to install a Guardian ECM suite, Beagle
    Active Probe and a TAG unit to expand its reconnaissance role. Additionally, a remote sensor
    dispenser unit was mounted on each arm, as was a recon camera, for use in those times when a
    TAG shot would give away the position of the 'Mech. Finally, the engineers mounted the
    experimental Null-Signature and Chameleon Light Polarization systems to help prevent the
    'Mech from being detected and targeted.
