Annihilator ANH-4A

The ANH-4A rebuilds the Annihilator as a stand-off sniper, where the ANH-1X fought as a close-in juggernaut. In place of each arm's LB 10-X AC, Medium Laser, and Small Pulse Laser cluster, it mounts a single Heavy PPC per arm, and the Light AC/2 in the center torso and the Light AC/2 in the head replace the twin Medium Lasers and Small Laser of the original. The LB 10-X AC in the left torso and the LB 10-X AC in the right torso carry over from the ANH-1X, though the CASE protecting those bays is gone. Heat-sink count rises from 10 double to 15 double, while the cruising speed of 22 km/h and top speed of 32 km/h stay ponderous for a 100-ton hull. The chassis remains an easily-serviced design, and Arc-Royal MechWorks builds it at Arc-Royal.
