The Jade Falcon Assault BattleMech is an unusual find in the touman of the Smoke Jaguars. The 'Mech mounts a respectable array of weapons that work at all ranges, making sure that there is no 'sweet spot' the enemy can try to stay at.

Ammo is a concern, especially where long campaigns are a concern.

The -A is a near Juggernaut of firepower while protected by its 17.5t of armor.

The BattleTech version of the Turkina mounts a set of fixed JumpJets, rather than installing them as part of an Omni-mount. This makes it one of the few Omni-Mechs with non-Omni equipment, a fact not recognized in MechCommander.

Replacing the ER Large Lasers with ER PCCs, the tonnage allows for additional heat-sinks to offset the increased heat load.
