Recognition notes
The Hammerhead is a 45-ton skirmisher built on a 270 XL fusion engine, cruising at 65 km/h and reaching 97 km/h on open ground. It carries a Streak SRM 6 in the left torso, a Large Pulse Laser in the right torso, and an ER Medium Laser in the center torso, with ten double heat sinks handling the load. Endo steel structure and Inner Sphere hardened armor cover the frame, and an actuator enhancement system runs through each leg. Both arms end in reinforced battle fists, and the type is built at Manufacturing Plant SSF-IT1 on Itabaiana.
