The Locust IIC is a Clan light mech. While it carries considerably low armor for a light mech, it makes up for this with its high movement speed clocking in at 130 km/h (181 km/h with MASC), 360° Torso yaw to see in any direction and hit-and-run weapons loadouts. A front-line unit making it a excellent anti-infantry BattleMech with capabilities to harass heavier BattleMechs.

History
The Locust IIC released in version 0.11.0.
Canon
One of the best-known BattleMechs in the Inner Sphere for its low production and operation costs, the Locust is also well known in the Clans. In 2832, Clan Mongoose unleashed an upgraded version of the venerable 'Mech on the Clans, known as the Locust IIC. The speedy design complemented Mongoose tactics, enabling them to win many Trials. When Clan Smoke Jaguar absorbed the Mongooses, they became the owners of the production line on Circe. This subsequently fell to Clan Jade Falcon following the de facto annihilation of the Jaguars. In addition to those three Clans, Clan Wolf has often used the Locust IIC as a garrison unit. Since it is a second-line unit Inner Sphere MechWarriors rarely see it in action.
Date Introduced 2832 during the Era known as "Early Succession War" (2781 - 2900) - Unit Role: Stricker
