Overview[ | ]

Fast and lightly armed, the Locust is a common sight across the Inner Sphere and periphery states. Designed for recon, the Locust carries a minimal loadout, but has an abundance of speed. Not even the venerable Jenner can match its top speed. The LCT-1V is the original variant and the most common. It's equipped with two Machine Guns and a Medium Laser.


The LCT-1V was available for purchase with a unique skin, a 30% Cbill bonus, and a 10% Loyalty Point bonus during Project Phoenix.


Strengths[ | ]

  • Fast, with a small profile.
  • Has the most ballistic hardpoints (not that there are many ballistic weapons that will fit...)

Weaknesses[ | ]

  • Light chassis weight results in very light armament and armour.
