I played Mechwarrior 2 in German and the 'mechs had different names. Does anyone know what the Catapult was called?

Catapult = Katapult or Schleuder (katapultiern / schleudern)

It really was named "Catapult", as in the English original. (MechCommander 1 & 2)

It is called "Katapult" in "MechWarrior 2 - Mercenaries" (and tabletop, books...).

It's funny, since Katapult is actually kinda reserved for K2, at least between fans.
