==Overview:==
During the development of the ATM weapon system Clan Coyote modified a
number of second-line 'Mechs to use as test platforms. One of these modified
'Mechs, a Hunchback IIC, proved to be an actual improvement upon the original
design, and after production of the ATM system began a number of Hunchbacks
were converted into the new configuration. The new Hunchback IIC2 has proven
to be fairly successful and several other clans (most notably Clan Wolf) have
begun to test the new design for possible deployment.
==Capabilities:==
The Hunchback IIC2 design removes the twin Ultra autocannons of the
original design, replacing them with two ATM 12 launchers with three tons of
ammunition each. Two additional heat sinks are included and four additional
tons of armor increase the survivability of the redesigned 'Mech. The jump
capability of the original design is retained. The new Hunchback Iic2 design
has nearly the same short range damage capability (when using HE missiles) as
the original design while gaining some things that the old design lacked; heat
efficiency, a long range punch, and over two minutes of sustained main fire
capability from the 'Mechs main weapons. The Hunchback IIC2 is proving to be a
formidable combination of tenacity, firepower, and ferocity in the hands of
the desperate trueborn warriors seeking either glory or death on the field of
battle.
==Deployment==
The Hunchback IIC2 serves in the front lines of Clan Coyote. Several have
been seen in the service of Clan Wolf, and there is rumors that Clans Ghost
Bear and Diamond Shark may also be considering deploying this formidable
'Mech.
