Overview:

       Appearance wise this mech resembles a Mad Cat Mk2. Well it is a 
   Mad Cat Mk2, but its nowwhere near the variant sold to the 
   Innersphere, this deadly prototype has the potential to even out 
   rival most Omnimechs of its class. 
       Being reconstructed with Omni Tech in mind, the Omni prototype 
   has the flexibility found in its early founder, the Timber Wolf / Mad 
   Cat. The original Mad Cat Mk2 was intended to be sold to the 
   Innersphere however but this Omni prototype is not meant for IS use. 
   Its designed specifically for Clan Diamond Sharks frontline 
   galaxies.


Capabilities:

       The Mad Cat Mk2 Omni is a prototype that is secretly developed by 
   request from the Khan of Clan Diamond Shark. A secretive project, the 
   Mad Cat MK2 Omni is a redesign from the original MK2 fitted with Omni 
   tech while still retaining the original Mad Cat Mk2 firepower and 
   manuverability. 
       The Mad Cat MK2 Omni is fully armored with 14.5 tons of Clan 
   grade Ferro Fibrous armor which provides almost as much as 18 tons of 
   regular armor alone. Its powerful XL engines lets the MK2 remain 
   fleet footed and the 4 Grandthrust Mk5 jumpjets let the mech jump up 
   till 120 metres which is greater than its predcessor 90m giving the 
   mech even more flexibility. The Mk2 Omni agility and protection 
   however isnt the mech's strong point.
       The main thing for any Clan assault is its firepower and the Mk2 
   Omni Primary has plenty, given its speed and agility. 2 Ripper series 
   A1 ERPPCs mounted on each arm served as the Mk2 Omni's principal 
   armament. Not only that, the 2 ER PPCs are slaved to an extremely 
   advanced Clan targetting computer which offer much greater accuracy. 
   Although most clan warriors despised the TC, the fall of Smoke Jaguar 
   serves to remind them how much better gunnery can do.
 
   Backing up the 2 ERPPCs is the quad of Series 2b ER medium 
   lasers also slaved to the Targetting computer. With the targetting 
   computer the Mk2 Omni can easily carve up most short range enemies to 
   shreds. The original Mk2 had a pair of LRM-10s to augument the mech's 
   long range fire but in the Mk2 Omni, those were remove largely 
   because Clan ER PPCs dont need ammunition to function. In place of 
   the LRM10s is a quad of Pattern JX Streak SRM4s. 2 tons of ammo 
   supply the missiles. As expected this array of missiles give the Mk2 
   Omni devastating accurate shortranged firepower.
       Despite the 19 double strength heatsinks, the Mk2 Omni runs very 
   hot especially after jjumping and pilots are advised to practise fire 
   discipline. The weapons array has being grouped into range brackets 
   and pilots are well advised to adhere to it lest the mech reaches 
   terrifying heat levels and shut down.
       The only other thing that really ties down the mech is its 30.7 
   million C-bill price tag, clearly a very expensive and hard to 
   produce machine.

Deployment:

       Currently only experimental. Only 1 star of this mech exist, 
   results have being very positive so far and its soon expected that 
   Clan Diamond Shark will produce the mech in limited numbers due to 
   cost and its almost certain that only elite warriors will get their 
   hands on this mech.

Known Variants: 

       As of it is only the primary version exist.
