The CPLT-CL
Catapult was produced by Hollis Incorporated in a limited production
run between 2571 and 2573 under a special military contract with the
Star League. It was officially classified as a close-support vehicle,
designed as a second-line defensive 'Mech with strong offensive capabilities.
The Catapult's two Holly LRM-15 racks give it a firing range of roughly
630 meters, enabling it to destroy an enemy 'Mech from a long distance
without risking opposing fire. When engaged at close range, the Catapult
can use its four Martell medium lasers to devastating effect. Because
it was designed for second-line rather than front-line fire support,
the Catapult lacks effective anti-infantry defenses. The Catapult's
ejection seat fires through a side-firing escape hatch instead of
the more common roof hatch. Source:
