Recognition notes
The Black Hawk-KU BHKU-OU is a 60-ton heavy fielded as an alternate configuration of the same OmniMech, cruising at 54 km/h and reaching 86 at top speed. Where the BHKU-O carries paired 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 ER medium laser in the right arm and adds a second ER medium laser in the head, while the left arm mounts a Hatchet in place of its energy weapons. The heat-sink count rises from 16 to 19 double sinks. It remains an easily-serviced design, built by Luthien Armor Works at its OmniMech Production Facility among other sites.
