Overview:
    Two decades ago, the Raven was a House Liao experimental attempt to produce a
    'Mech that could provide a battalion or regiment with sophisticated
    electronic-warfare capabilities.  The equipment was not a complete success, both
    because it was too heavy and because it was not sophisticated enough to turn the
    tide of a battle.  Recovered technology has changed all that.  Produced only by
    Hellespont Industries on Sian, the Raven is striding off the assembly line
    bristling with the most advanced electronics ever seen in the Inner Sphere.
    
    The key to making it all work are the lighter materials and equipment now
    available.  the Hermes 210 XL engine saved enough mass to equip the Raven with
    even more electronic gear than planned in 3025.  The Guardian Electronic
    Counter-Measures help shield the Raven and the rest of its unit from enemy
    sensors.  the Beagle Probe, which meshes especially well with the Apple Churchill
    2000 targeting system, locates even hidden enemy units.  Once it locates the
    enemy, The Raven can bombard him to rubble in two ways.  The target-acquisition
    gear, hooked directly to the Beagle probe, spots the enemy accurately for friendly
    fire from the Arrow IV artillery missile.  Besides this, the Apple Churchill
    Guiding Light Narc Beacon provides a magnet for direct fire missiles, from the
    Raven and the rest of its unit.
    
    The economy of weight allows Hellespont Industries to make the Raven
    better-protected as well.  An additional half-ton of armor protects the front
    torso and arms, and Cellular Ammunition Storage Equipment shields the missile
    reloads against an internal explosion.
