Well, the Clans have their Hellbringers, and that's mostly what you see in CW. The IS really needs something between the Cicada, and the Atlas. A suggestion was made for another Gryphon, which is good, but we need something heavy, imo.

I'd like to see the Banderanatch make an appearance, pretty mean looking 75 ton mech with an ECM variant...

But, the Cataphract has a variant with it as well, in the CTF-0x

CTF-0X
The Confederation experimented with a Cataphract variant carrying the Electronic Warfare Equipment that was mounted on the Raven which was being designed around the same time. It was equipped with a single PPC and Autocannon/5, as well as two arm mounted Medium Lasers, the EW equipment, and a Remote Sensor Dispenser on the rear center torso. A single shipment of CTF-0X prototypes was sent to Sian but line production did not commence afterwards because a request for more EW components was denied.[9]

The fact that only a few were produced shouldn't effect their eligibility. The Highlander 732 was thought to be effectively extinct in 3050, only Comstar, and the Northwind Highlanders having a few squirreled away. The same is true of the King Crab.

So, this would be something pretty easy to add in, since the 'Phract is already in-game.

There would other good chassis choices too for an ECM mech. The Victor could be more popular with ECM. In the lore it had one and it would make sense to give one chassis with ecm because it would enhance it's commandoish identity
