Second Generation BattleMechs Predictably, the Mackie was the first ‘Mech to incorporate advances in BattleMech technology. In 2470 the MSK-7A was released and a number of variants quickly followed carrying an assortment of different ballistic and energy weapons. Most importantly, however, the -7A was built using a lighter, stronger frame and powered by a considerably more efficient fusion engine. By this time the armor had been improved as well, allowing the Mackie to carry significantly less actual weight in armor while maintaining the same level of protection. Gladiator in 2487. However, it would take until 2518 for the Free Worlds League to introduce their first second generation BattleMech, an updated ICR-1S Icarus II. The Capellans were even further behind with the FRB-2E Firebee not released until 2524. In 2471 General Mechanics updated their Wasp in a similar fashion with the introduction of the WSP-1A model that is still in use today, followed shortly thereafter by an updated BNC-3E Banshee. From there the Terran Hegemony would begin to focus their efforts on building entirely new second generation BattleMechs, built from the ground up with the latest technological advances. CRS-6B Crossbow Once again the Lyrans were the first outside of the Terran Hegemony to acquire the latest advances in technology, updating their own homegrown Crossbow to the CRS-6B model by 2473. Oddly enough it was Arcturan Arms, not Coventry Defense Conglomerate, that was the first to manufacture the advanced structural composite, armor, cockpit, and improved fusion engines that marked the second generation of ‘Mech technology. BWP-2B Ymir improved security. Coventry Defense Conglomerate would have to wait unit 2475 to update the Ymir, with the Commando getting upgraded in 2480. It can be inferred from this that after the security lapses at Coventry, the Archon shifted the main Lyran BattleMech research and development teams closer to himself by locating them on his capital world for GLD-4R Gladiator Earthwerks Incorporated was the first major Terran defense contractor to introduce entirely new BattleMechs based around the second generation technology. Their ARC-2R Archer debuted in 2474 followed by their STG-3R Stinger in 2479. Earthwerks was also well on their way to developing the Thunderbolt, with the first generation TDR- 1C rolling of the assembly lines by 2491. They would next overhaul the 60-ton GRF-1A BattleMech, a design they purchased from Maxwell-Manufacturing, Inc., into the ubiquitous 55-ton GRF-1N Griffin in 2492. The Federates Suns would unleash their first ground up second generation BattleMech just one year after Earthwerks Incorporated. In 2475 Archernar BattleMechs, located on the capital of New Avalaon, debuted their 75- ton HMH-3D Hammerhands. Jump capable and armed with a pair of Mydron Model B class 10 autocannons, two medium lasers and a SRM-6, the Hammerhands would go onto to become one of the most highly respected designs of the era, eventually inspiring the development of the vaunted WHM-6R Warhammer in 2515. WSP-1A Wasp Immediately behind the Lyrans, the Federated Suns updated their BattleAxe in 2475 and their Swordsman in 2482 while the Draconis Combine overhauled their 6
HEP-2H Helepolis Mitchell Vehicles unleashed their revised artillery ‘Mech, the HEP-2H Helepolis, in 2488. Ford Military Limited, based on Terra, released the 25-ton THE-F Thorn to much fanfare in 2490, marking their one and only contribution to the BattleMech marketplace. Bergan Industries would enter the burgeoning BattleMech market next, with the release of their iconic LCT-1V Locust in 2499, another design still in heavy use hundreds of years later.
