Recognition Notes
The Argus AGS-4D is a 60-ton heavy that fights at medium range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Its right arm carries a Rotary AC/5 and a Machine Gun, while the left arm mounts an LRM 10, and a pair of ER Medium Lasers sit in the side torsos. A Beagle active probe and CASE share the left torso, with a targeting computer and a second CASE installation in the right torso. Both arms are minimal weapon pods without hands, and the chassis is built for easy servicing. Achernar Battlemechs builds the type at its New Avalon plant, with Robinson Standard BattleWorks also producing it at Robinson.
