Key Metrics

	Run	ACD	Heat
	Baseline	103.5	22
	Optimized	106.1	32
	Redline	102.9	42

Test Results

The SHD-2D2 has mediocre baseline damage output with almost no opportunity to optimize (+3 versus baseline). This Shadow Hawk variant builds up insignificant amounts of heat and is very easy to control.

Key Metrics

	Damage/Hit	4.4
	Critical Hits	4.3 per Game
	Time to Kill	14.7 Turns

Test Results

The SHD-2D2 deals just below average damage per hit, generates a very high number of criticals and rarely delivers a killing blow.

Key Metrics

	Armor Coverage	56.2%
	Survival Rate	45.4%
	Destruction Rate	54.6%

Test Results

This configuration of the Shadow Hawk has poor armor coverage that is vulnerable on the arms and is over spec on the rear torso. The SHD-2D2 has average survivability and attributes a large percentage of deaths to ammo explosions.
