Deployment:
Even with the 10R's popularity, Telfar is still a small production
facility. Their overhead costs have always kept them from expanding their
lines, which keeps their 'Mechs unavailable to large numbers of DCMs
'Mechwarriors. The 10R specifically has become an award for honorable service
or excellent command of a small unit. Over the last 50 years, the Dragon's
enemies have come to recognize that these hard-hitting cavalry designs are
usually piloted by a veteran lance commander or senior 'Mechwarrior. This
viewpoint of the opposition makes the Lynx both a priority target and an
opponent to be avoided.
Variants:
The new Lynx offered by Telfar is a relatively simple upgrade from the 9R.
The design team swapped out the ERPPC for a capacitor enhanced heavy PPC. This
required downgrading the large laser to a light PPC and dropping two heat
sinks. To combat some of the lost range, the medium lasers were swapped for ER
models. This forces the Lynx to engage in more controlled bracket firing, but
it also increases its damage and mid-range capabilities. The 10R has proven far
more popular with DCMS Mechwarriors than any previous version of the Lynx,
though the 9Q and 9R are still produced on Midway.
