{{Mech Description
|Description=Designed as a fire-support platform to replace the aging [[Catapult]], the Yeoman carries a heavy load of missiles for BattleMech of its size. The lack of support weapons means pilots must attack at range, and it occasionally suffers from ammunition shortages.
|Strengths=Though 5 tons lighter than the [[Catapult]], the Yeoman is able to save weight that might otherwise be devoted to armor for its arms. Since the arms are almost an after though on this design, weapons and armor can be concentrated in its massive torso bays. The inability to equip [[Jump Jets]] frees up more tonnage and allows almost any weapon loadout that can be carried on the heavier Catapult to be carried on this mech as well.
|Weaknesses=Unfortunately, the Yeoman is a flawed design and is overshadowed by every other missile heavy design in its class, including the [[Vulture]], [[Catapult]], and [[Archer]]. It lacks the Vulture's flexible slots, the Catapults jump jets and durability, and the Archer advanced electronics suite. Further, the huge side torsos are easy to hit, and damage to those areas will both destroy a sizable fraction of weapons carried and will transfer directly to CT internals.

==Description==
Designed as a fire-support platform to replace the aging [[Catapult]], the Yeoman carries a heavy load of missiles for BattleMech of its size. The lack of support weapons means pilots must attack at range, and it occasionally suffers from ammunition shortages.

== Tactical Analysis ==
'''Offensive'''<br>


'''Defensive'''<br>
The missile bays are mounted on the LT and RT, and unlike the Catapult's LA and RA missile bays, damage to the LT or RT will destroy both a sizable fraction of weapons carried, and will transfer directly to CT internals.
