Recognition notes
The Arbalest is a 25-ton light that fights at long range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Twin LRM 10 racks sit in the left and right torsos, backed by an ER Medium Laser in each arm for closer work that still favors reach over pure knife-fighting. An ECM suite fills the head, and ten double heat sinks keep the launchers cycling. The chassis is noted as an easily-serviced design, and Irece Alpha builds it at its Irece factory.
