In a design oddity, the ''Turkina'' mounts enough [[jump jet]]s to vault 90 meters hardwired onto the frame, rather than using them in modular pods. While this simplified repair, it also uses tonnage that could be devoted to other systems when a mission does not call for jumping. Designers also included fifteen [[double heat sink]]s, four more than could be fit into the engine, so they are fixed in the torso.<ref name=TRO192 /> The ''Turkina'' is named after [[Legend of Turkina|Turkina]], the first [[Jade Falcon (species)|Jade Falcon]] to be tamed, who inspired the leaders of Clan Jade Falcon in its early days. The name of the Turkina Keshik is also derived from this bird.<ref>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 9-11 - "Legend of Turkina"</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== The ''Turkina'' has 42 tons available for modular pods. The primary configuration is armed for long-range combat with twin [[ER PPC]]s, [[LRM-15]]s, and [[LB-X Autocannon/5]]s. Four extra [[double heat sink]]s keeps heat manageable, while enough ammunition is mounted to keep the ''Turkina'' in the fight for extended periods.<ref name=TRO193>''Technical Readout: 3058 Upgrade'', p. 193</ref> ==Variants== *; Alternate Configuration A : The first alternate configuration is well supplied with ammunition for its paired [[Gauss rifle]]s and [[LRM-20]]s.<ref name=TRCIp78f /> BV (1.0) = 2,812<ref name=TRO193 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 342</ref>, BV (2.0) = 2,906<ref name=TRCIp78f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 200</ref> *; Alternate Configuration B : Continuing with the paired weapons theme, the B uses pairs of [[Large Pulse Laser]]s, [[ER Large Laser]]s, [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s, and [[ER Medium Laser]]s, all linked to an advanced [[Targeting Computer]]. Ten extra [[double heat sink]]s still struggle to keep heat levels down.<ref name=TRCIp78f /> The impetus for this variant seems to lie in the [[Battle of Tukayyid (3052)|Battle of Tukayyid]] and the [[Com Guards]]' strategy of bleeding them of supplies by fighting a protracted campaign. With no weapons that need ammunition, this configuration can stay in the field as long as its [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] can. BV (1.0) = 3,043<ref name=TRO193 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 343</ref>, BV (2.0) = 3,420<ref name=TRCIp78f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 201</ref> *; Alternate Configuration C : Another variant that seems to be based on combating the [[Inner Sphere]], the ''Turkina'' C is designed for urban combat. An [[LB-X Autocannon/20]] and twin [[Large Pulse Laser]]s can open up holes in enemy [['Mech]]s, while the [[Streak SRM-6]] and paired [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s exploit them. Paired [[Anti-Personnel Pod]]s, [[Machine Gun]]s, and [[Flamer]]s discourage conventional forces from closing. An [[Active Probe]] finds most hidden units, ensuring the MechWarrior is rarely surprised; two extra heat sinks make a significant difference.<ref name=TRCIp78f /> BV (1.0) = 2,464<ref name=TRO193 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 344</ref>, BV (2.0) = 2,796<ref name=TRCIp78f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 202</ref> *; Alternate Configuration D : This variant uses two pairs of [[ATM 12]]s. Ten tons of ammunition allow it to make use of the flexibility of [[Advanced Tactical Missile]] technology. A pair of [[ER Medium Laser]]s provide backup and two extra heat sinks keep the load manageable.<ref name=TRCIp78f /> BV (1.0) = 2,840<ref name=TRO193 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 345</ref> (2,864)<ref>''Record Sheets: Upgrades'', p. 153</ref>, BV (2.0) = 3,132<ref name=TRCIp78f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 203</ref> *; Alternate Configuration E : This powerful close range variant is equipped with six [[Streak SRM-6]], and an [[Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifle 40|HAG 40]]. BV (2.0) = 3,147<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 204</ref> *; Alternate Configuration H : The [[Crusader Clans|Crusader]] variant uses three [[Heavy Medium Laser]]s, two [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s, and two [[Ultra Autocannon/10]]s. Five additional [[double heat sink]]s keep heat under control.<ref name=TRCIp78f /> BV (1.0) = 2,481<ref name=TRO193 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 346</ref><ref>''Record Sheets: Upgrades'', p. 154</ref>, BV (2.0) = 2,712<ref name=TRCIp78f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 205</ref> *; Alternate Configuration M : Each arm of this ''Turkina'' configuration carries an [[ER Large Laser]], [[LB 2-X]], and an [[LB 5-X]], plus a ton of ammunition for each autocannon. These are supplemented by an [[LRM-5]] in each side torso and a center torso mounted [[Medium Pulse Laser]]. Sixteen double heat sinks are carried as well. BV (2.0) = 2,495<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 16'', p. 39</ref> *; Alternate Configuration T : The left and right torso carry a [[Streak LRM-15]] and ton of ammunition. The left arm carries a pair of [[ProtoMech AC/8]]s and two tons of AC ammunition, while the right arm carries a pair of [[ER PPC]]s. BV (2.0) = 3,080<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 16'', p. 37</ref> *; Alternate Configuration U : Designed for space operations, this ''Turkina'' configuration mounts several experimental systems. A [[BattleMech HarJel System]] protects the torso against breaches, and two [[Liquid Storage]] tanks provide additional fuel for the jump jets. A [[Coolant Pod]] can quickly dissipate the heat built up by the ten [[ER Small Laser]]s, twin [[LRM-15]]s, and [[ATM-9]]. An [[Active Probe]] allows the ''Turkina'' U to find enemy forces, and the [[Talon (weapon)|Talons]] mounted in each leg prevent the ''Turkina'' from floating away from the hull. To provide additional protection the Liquid Storage tanks, Harjel systems, and Coolant Pod have all been [[Armored Components|armored]] against enemy fire. BV (2.0) = 2,520<ref>''Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged — Old is the New New'', p. 149</ref> *; Alternate Configuration X : The X variant is configured for fire support with an [[LRM-20]] slaved to an [[Artemis V FCS]] mounted in each arm. These launchers are backed up by six [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s and an [[ECM]] system. [[Talon (weapon)|Talons]] are mounted on each foot for inflicting additional damage from kick attacks. BV (2.0) = 3,067<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)'', p. 206</ref> *; Alternate Configuration Z : The Z variant was developed by [[The Society]]. Four [[iATM 12]] systems provide heavy firepower, while the [[Nova CEWS]] and [[Light TAG]] provide additional targeting data and target designation abilities. Most frightening is the ''Turkina Z's'' ten tons of ammunition space which ensures it will stay in the fight for a long time.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving Supplemental'', p. 85</ref> == Design Quirks == The ''Turkina'' has the following [[Design Quirks|Design Quirk]]:<ref>''BattleMech Manual'', p. 95: "BattleMech Quirk Table"</ref><ref>[https://bg.battletech.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/BattleMech-Manual-2022-09-14-v6.01.pdf ''BattleMech Manual Errata (Version 6.01)''], p. 9: "BattleMech Quirk Table"</ref> * [[Easy to Pilot]] <!-- added by errata --> <!-- No Torso Twist removed by errata --> ==Notes== * Plastic Turkina Prime is included in [[BattleTech: Clan Heavy Battle Star]] ==Gallery== <gallery> Turkina 3058U.png|Original ''Turkina'' from ''[[Technical Readout: 3058|TRO:3058]]'' Turkina RGilClan v16.png|''Turkina'' from ''[[Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 16|RG:ilClan v16]]'' CCG Crusade Turkina Prime.jpg|''Turkina'' Prime from ''[[BattleTech Trading Card Game|CCG]]'' CCG Mechwarrior Turkina A.jpg|''Turkina'' A from ''CCG'' CCG Mechwarrior Turkina C.jpg|''Turkina'' C from ''CCG'' Clan Heavy Battle Star - Turkina.jpg|''Turkina'' miniature from ''[[BattleTech: Clan Heavy Battle Star]]'' </gallery> ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Jade Falcon Sourcebook]]'' * ''[[Master Unit List: Battle Values]]'' * ''[[Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 16]]'' * ''[[Record Sheets: 3055/3058]]'' * ''[[Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades]]'' * ''[[Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Clan & Star League)]]'' * ''[[Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged - Old is the New New]]'' * ''[[Record Sheets: Upgrades]]'' * ''[[A Rending of Falcons]]'' (novel) * ''[[Technical Readout: 3058]]'' * ''[[Technical Readout: 3058 Upgrade]]'' * ''[[The Wars of Reaving Supplemental]]'' [[Category:'Mechs]] [[Category:Clan Cloud Cobra BattleMechs]] [[Category:Clan Coyote BattleMechs]] [[Category:Clan Fire Mandrill BattleMechs]] [[Category:Clan Jade Falcon BattleMechs]] [[Category:Clan Nova Cat BattleMechs]] [[Category:Clan OmniMechs]] [[Category:Society BattleMechs]]
