Recognition notes
The Bardiche Heavy Strike Tank (Minesweeper) is a 70-ton wheeled combat vehicle built for the brawl, reworked from the base model's turret armament of an Improved Narc and twin Light PPCs down to a single Heavy PPC in the turret. The front-mounted MML 7 gives way to a smaller MML 3, though the four Magshots on the right side and left side carry over unchanged. Switching from an XL engine to a Fusion engine costs speed, with cruising down from 54 to 43 km/h and top speed falling from 86 to 65. The vehicular mine dispenser at the rear and the Reactive armor also carry over from the base model. Earthwerks-FWL, Inc. builds the type at Calloway VI.
