	One of the most notable attributes of the ''Night Stalker'' is its speed. Powered by its [[Pitban 320 XL]] [[extralight engine]], the 40 ton design can quickly close distance between it and its objective. In its role as a recon and pursuit 'Mech, the ''Night Stalker'' is fitted with a [[Beagle active probe]] to find hidden units. Other design features include a [[torso-mounted cockpit]] and [[Target Acquisition Gear|TAG]] - the latter of which can be used to call in artillery support. Protecting the 'Mech's hull are six and a half tons of [[Paulina]] [[ferro-fibrous]] armor.		One of the most notable attributes of the ''Night Stalker'' is its speed.

The first original BattleMech produced by [[Victory Conditions Industries]] on [[Mizar]], the ''Night Stalker'' was first unveiled in the arenas of [[Solaris VII]], where it would gather a reputation that propelled the company’s sales to success. The design would soon see service with the [[Federated Suns]], the [[Lyran Commonwealth]], mercenary units, and among all the nation states of the [[Inner Sphere]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Republic of the Sphere'', pp. 32 Night Stalker - Background</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== One of the most notable attributes of the ''Night Stalker'' is its speed.
