| - | + | Identical to the original Uziel in all performance categories, the [http://www.mektek.net// MekTek's] modified version adds a single missile slot to the high-mounted S1 missile rack. While this seems a small change, its impact on combat versatility is significant and makes an already capable Medium mech even more effective. Now able to carry heavy missiles such as the [[Arrow IV Thunderbolt]] or Cluster Missiles, as well as the powerful [[Heavy Rocket Launcher]], the Uziel can be easily adapted to counter missile or siege operations. Its traditional light attack and scouting roles do not suffer from the enhanced capability, however, with [[BAP]] and [[Jump Jets]] supporting long range operations such as sniping.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref> | |

| + | '''Weaknesses'''<br> | ||
| + | The light weight of the chassis limits the configuration of heavy or diverse weaponry and suggests that the Uziel be optimized for a particular type of mission. Its lack of speed is often compounded by pilots wishing to increase offensive potential while sacrificing mobility. Its agility is quite good and it makes an effective brawler for its size, but its overall lack of speed makes it vulnerable to more powerful units in close combat situations. It is a capable unit and not to be taken lightly if allowed access to rear areas, its potential for destruction is quite high in experienced hands and commanders are advised not to send raw pilots against it unsupported.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref> | ||
