WVE-7C Wyvern
A standard city-fighting 'mech from the days of the Star League, the Wyvern was designed for crowd-control, garrison duty, security work, and urban defense. Never a very popular vehicle with mechwarriors, this may have been more due to the types of missions they were asked to perform in the 'mech rather than the actual machine itself. Armed with an extremely reliable large laser as its main weapon, the remaining weapons systems leave a little to be desired. The proximity of the long range missile tubes to the main reactor is a constant source of worry over ammo explosions, and the compactly engineered short range missile system is prone to jams. Luckally, the SRM can usually be brought back to operational status by simply jumping the 'mech up and down a few times. Still produced in limited numbers on the industrial world of Tikonov, this design has all but dissapeared in the Inner Sphere.

Until recently, this specific vehicle is piloted by a surviving member of the Tikonov Reserves' Home Garrison Battalion--having escaped with the 'mech off-planet after it fell to mercenary forces in early 3028. The 'mech has since changed hands, presumably to a family member of the original pilot, but this can not be confirmed. In addition, the 'mech has been modifed slightly by battlefield technicians with the removal of both small lasers, the addition of a new heat sink, and the replacement of the standard large laser with a captured one.
