Recognition notes
The Behemoth (Stone Rhino) is a 100-ton assault that fights at long range, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54. Twin Gauss rifles anchor the design, one in each torso, backed by a Large Pulse Laser in each arm, while a Small Pulse Laser sits in the head. Despite its bulk it carries jump jets good for 90 metres, unusual for a machine this heavy, and runs 10 double heat sinks. Its head carries only light armor plating, a known vulnerability on the chassis. Csesztreg Industriplex Alpha builds it at its Csesztreg plant, with production also handled elsewhere.
