{{Mech Description
 +
|Description=Originally developed during the Star League era, the Panther is now used almost exclusively by the Draconis Combine as a PPC fire support Mech for light recon units. Recently upgraded with enhanced electronics and structural improvements to competed with more modern designs.
 +
|Strengths=It is the only Light Mech capable of mounting a 4-slot Energy weapon, such as the Linked Capacitors PPC (which would give it an exceptional rate of fire at long range) or the Plasma Cannon (which would give it substantial damage potential at short- or medium-range). Possibly a good contender as a Solaris Mech against other Mechs in its class.
