The 65 tons Catapult is designed as a long-range, indirect fire support 'Mech, with a blistering amount of missile Hardpoints at its disposal. Perfect for raining down fire on enemies you can't even see. Difficult to counter - especially if it has a Scout 'Mech spotting for it - the Catapult excels at staying out of enemy range and continuing to pound away with its missiles.

With an excellent top speed of 64 km/h and Jump Jets, the Catapult has a surprising amount of maneuverability for a Heavy Mech. If enemies get into close range four medium Lasers add to this 'Mechs already potent arsenal.

The Catapult is surprisingly agile and also a powerful missile support platform, but energy focused variants exist, most notably the Catapult CPLT-K2 (Kurita Catapult) which uses PPC's; making this 'Mech quite a deadly, heavy hitting long ranged 'Mech.
