Recognition notes
The Black Hawk-KU BHKU-OG is a 60-ton skirmisher configuration of the same OmniMech as the BHKU-O, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out at 86, with a 150-metre jump capability carried over. Where the base configuration mounts a pair of Medium Pulse Lasers and Medium Lasers in each arm along with a Small Laser in each torso, this configuration strips the arms down to a single Medium X-Pulse Laser in the left arm and a Snub-Nose PPC in the right, dropping the torso-mounted Small Lasers entirely. A TAG unit sits in the head, and the heat-sink count falls from 16 to 14 double sinks. It remains an easily-serviced design, built by Luthien Armor Works at its OmniMech Production Facility along with several other manufacturers.
