Recognition notes
The Arbalest 3 is a 25-ton light rebuilt for close-in brawling, a 3081 reworking of the 3077 missile boat original. Where the base Arbalest carries a single ER Medium Laser in each arm, this configuration replaces them with a pair of ER Small Lasers per arm, four in all, while the LRM 10 in the left torso and the LRM 10 in the right torso carry over unchanged. The ECM suite mounted in the head on the original is absent here, and ferro-fibrous armor replaces the base model's standard plating. Cruising speed holds at 54 km/h with a top speed of 86, and the design remains an easily-serviced type built by Irece Alpha at Irece.
