Known despairing among the elite MechWarriors who pilot it, and witnesses to it's ferocity in battle, as the Mad Dog's 'Big Brother'. It's power, in all variants, allow it to go head to head with any 'Mech, and be an even, if not easy, fight. To avoid the physical appearance similar to the missile carrying Inner Sphere designs, such as the Yeoman, the torso has fitted with smaller versions of LRMs, that use a rapid firing system through a limited number of tubes, to fire the same amount of missiles, at the same speed as the normal system. This type of design makes it possible for the external appearance to change so minimally, that War Books have trouble telling the difference between variants, giving the pilot of the Tomahawk the advantage of surprise, even if they are the defenders. The major drawback to this design, is that field repairs to the missile systems are impossible, as they are too advanced for the simple tool kits stored in the cockpit. Changing between variants can also take 15% longer, because the launchers must be reset and reprogrammed. The chassis carries a Electronic Counter Measures suite. The variants without the Artemis IV system hold NARC LRM ammo, so they can be enhanced when supported by allied scouts carrying NARC launchers. The design was the end product of Vlad's orders to make a Omnimech that would efficiently counter anything that Clan Ghost Bear could throw at the Wolves. As such the design is a Clan to Clan fighter, and sacrificed heat sink capability for power. It can deal an amazing amount of damage in a short period of time, but most variants carry little ammo. They travel in mixed trinaries, to exploit the powers of each of the variants, while each protect the rest from their weaknesses. Capabilities: The Omni capability of the Tomahawk allows the Tomahawk to serve in almost any combat role, scout being the exception. The Primary configuration, with it's massive array of weapons, allows it to march directly into battle without worry. It's weapons also give it enough firepower to over power the most feared Assault 'Mechs, such as the Atlas or Dire Wolf, and survive, just to go into combat with another. The Alpha variant, with it's Gauss Rifles and missiles, allow it to serve as a fire-support 'Mech, as well as a long range sniper. The Bravo variant carries enough missiles to completely destroy any 'Mech in a single volley. As such, this variant primarily serves as a massive fire-support 'Mech. The Charlie variant is mainly an all range combatant, with it's weapons varying from dual ER Small Lasers, to an ER Large Laser. The Delta variant sports a variety of weapons linked to a Targeting Computer to enhance the pilots skills while fighting at maximum range. The Echo variant is a massive upgrade to the principles behind the Mad Dog Heavy Omnimech. The weapon systems are nearly doubled in power, while upgrading the standard LRM 20s to enhanced versions equipped with the Artemis IV FCS system. Deployment: The Tomahawk is presently being used by elite units within the Omega Galaxy. Original plans called for the design to be deployed to every frontline Galaxy but those plans have yet to be seen. There are currently 6 Tomahawks in the field, and all count as prototype models. Battle History: The Tomahawk has fought Ghost Bear units in multiple classified border disputes. The design was originally sent into the Periphery to hunt down the rumoured 'Minnesota Tribe' - the descendants of the Wolverine Clan, a Clan that was thought to be annihilated by Wolf hands. The hunt was to test the design against the dishonourable Inner Sphere tactics, while regaining honour for the Clan by finishing the annihilation. No settlements were located, however, several small pirate groups were destroyed in the search.
