Recognition notes
The Arcas is a 65-ton skirmisher fighting at stand-off range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86, with a 150-metre jump. Twin ER large lasers in the arms carry the fight at range, while a Medium Pulse Laser and a Streak SRM 4 in each torso, plus a further Streak SRM 4 in the center torso, give it a heavier hand once the enemy closes. It runs on a 325 XL fusion engine over an endo steel frame, with 15 double heat sinks and standard armor. Bergan Industries builds it at Alshain.
