HER-3T Hermes II History: First produced after the fall of the Star League, the Hermes II is actually one of the newest BattleMech designs in the field today. Designed by Irian BattleMechs in 2798 as the successor to the original Hermes introduced in 2632, the Hermes II is 10 tons heavier and carries significantly more firepower and armor than its predecessor. Created to serve as both a scout and a strike unit, it is equally at home operating with other scout units such as the Stinger and Phoenix Hawk, or heavier units like the Hunchback and Shadow Hawk. This is made possible by the HER-2S’s top speed of 97.2 kph combined with the long range of the Oriente medium autocannon carried in its right arm. Seven and half tons of Riese-456 armor give it enough protection to engage in protracted fights, even against units heavier than itself. Its name comes from the distinctive wing shaped flanges on the back of its feet. Originally conceived as heat sinks, by the time the Hermes II was put in production one had been moved the engine compartment and the other to the left torso near the ammunition bin, but the trademark shape remained. The Hermes II has also proven to be a particularly reliable and resilient design. After overcoming an early problem with the placement of the Oriente autocannon, the ‘Mech has gone to earn the nickname “Old Reliable” due to the ease of maintenance and repair, which often must be completed in the field under less than ideal circumstances. Irian BattleMechs is one of the oldest companies operating in the Inner Sphere. Tracing it roots back to 2182 as United Fiber Optics on the planet of Irian, they expanded first into mining and refining renaming themselves Irian Technologies in 2309. The Irian BattleMechs division got its start as part of Project Arcturus, where the FWL reverse engineered the Terran Hegemony’s Archer and Wasp BattleMechs. The WSP- 1A Wasp is still produced today at their facility on Shiro III, alongside the HER-2S Hermes II, while the Archer found its way to Earthwerks Incorporated’s plant on Calloway VI. Irian BattleMechs also began building the stolid GLT-3N Guillotine under license from Newhart Industries shortly after it was introduced. It continued to produce the Guillotine even after Newhart’s New Earth plant was destroyed in 2776. However, due the inability to produce Endo-Steel, by 2825 they were forced to downgrade the Guillotine, and switched production over to the GLT-4L. There are rumors Irian BattleMechs is now looking to partner with another FWL BattleMech producer, Technicron Manufacturing, in hopes of licensing their wildly successful Awesome and Quickdraw BattleMechs. Capabilities: The HER-3T replaces the Hermes 240 fusion engine with a powerful Vox 280, increasing its top speed to almost 120 kph and making it one of the fastest BattleMechs on the field. This increased speed makes it an even more potent scout, capable of ranging well in front of the main body and able to outpace most any other ‘Mech it may encounter. Protected by seven tons of 4/Star Slab armor, the HER- 3T can handle a sustained engagement even against heavier units and can fight a holding action until additional friendly units arrive. Armed with a Thunderbolt A5M heavy laser and backed up with an Irian Weapon Works medium laser, the HER- 3T can make short work of other light scouts. A single well placed shot with the Thunderbolt can disable a light ‘Mech, and coupled with its speed, the -3T has little trouble getting into position for such a shot. Because of this, the -3T is also well suited for duty in a pursuit lance, tracking down and destroying retreating and fleeing enemy units. The Olympian Flamer also allows the HER-3T to serve as an incendiary ‘Mech, setting fires to cover an advance or, when required, to cover its withdraw from the battlefield. The Olympian is an unusual design, using a liquid-fuel mixture instead of venting plasma directly from the fusion engine. This makes for a significantly safer weapon, although the gel mixture is relatively difficult to manufacture. The tanks are mounted just behind the flamer itself. The Hermes II also uses its flamer as an anti-infantry weapon. 47 The Hermes II also carries the Irian E.A.R. communications system. This powerful system is capable of communicating with orbiting satellites giving it significant value as a command and control unit and greatly enhancing it scouting prowess. Weather, navigation, communication, even scientific and military satellites can be acquired. Many battles have been determined not by actions on the battlefield, but by weather or by a superior understanding of the local topography. It can also handle communications with friendly DropShips, relaying them directly to friendly units. Variants: Thus far there has only been one major variant of the Hermes II produced. The HER-2M, introduced in 2802, dispenses with the autocannon in favor of additional short range weapons. Two more medium lasers, along with a pair of machine guns, replace the Oriente autocannon. This variant also uses the larger Vox 280 fusion engine making it faster than the original. An additional heat stink has also been added. The version is used almost exclusively by the Dark Shadows, the ‘Mech unit of SAFE, the intelligence arm of the Free Worlds League.
