Overview:
    The Wolf Trap, the Federated Commonwealth codename for House Kurita's answer to the
    Wolfhound, is a rubric likely to stick, even though the Draconis Combine will doubtless give
    it some Japanese name.  This 'Mech has been on the drawing boards for years, only recently
    entering extensive field testing.  One of the first completely new designs to emerge since
    the recovery of Star League technology, it will be a bellwether to see if other realms, such
    as the Free Worlds League and Capellan Confederation, rush to produce new designs instead of
    revamping old ones.
    
    Nearing production at a top-security wing of Luthien Armor Works, the Wolf Trap is
    expected to be a blend of proven systems and advanced technology.  Prototypes have
    extra-light engines and Endo Steel internal structure.  The advanced engine provides good
    speed, and so the designers have not equipped the Wolf Trap with jump jets.  The weapons mix
    is not one that generates great amounts of heat, and so the Wolf Trap prototypes do not have
    bulky double heat sinks.
    
    The 'Mech's weaponry is designed to deliver heavy damage at long range and follow up
    with even more firepower as the range closes.  The Victory 23R Medium Lasers and Shigunga
    Long-Range Missiles are proven systems, in use on many 'Mechs across Kurita space.  The
    Imperator Code Red LB 10-X Autocannon is still an official secret, promising but untested.
    If the prototypes continue to perform well, the Wolf Trap is expected to begin production
    within six months.
