================================================================================================
Overview:
    The SHD-2Hδ was a step away from the brawler concept and towards flexibility, albeit at a
    price. The blend of mobility and firepower came with the return of that old spectre that had
    haunted the Shadowhawk design for centuries: ammunition bins cooking off.
    
    In terms of performance the -2Hδ stood head and shoulders above most past variants. Despite
    the ER lasers the -2Hδ was heat neutral. Living a little dangerously could be argued a
    small price to pay, perhaps even in in the spirit of the original -2H. The proof of the
    pudding was in the eating, and pilot feedback was positive.

Capabilities:
    The -2Hδ was overstuffed. Between an LBX-AC 10, an MML-9 (with Artemis IV), an XL gyro and
    an XL engine there was simply not enough space in the torso to compartmentalise the
    ammunition bins in a safe way. This was not as great an issue when the -2Hδ was designed
    such that it could comfortably maintain some distance, and also carried substantially more
    armour than pre-PA variants, but the optics were bad and it seemed counter to PA's design
    principals. Nonetheless, it was considered a success.

Variants:
    Promethean Armouries' Shadowhawk variants would not see another update until after
    Ravensbourne Specialist Engineering had signed a technology sharing agreement with Clan Star
    Viper in 3120, leading to a massive overhaul across the zaibatsu's products and services.
