Recognition notes
The Black Hawk (Nova) C is a 50-ton medium that fights as a sniper at long range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86 with a 150-metre jump capability. Where the Prime configuration mounts six ER medium lasers in each arm, this configuration carries a single Gauss rifle in the left arm, backed by an SRM 4 in the left torso and a small pulse laser in the right torso. The heat-sink count drops to 14 double units from the Prime's 18, reflecting the lighter energy draw of the new loadout. It retains the type's low, hard-to-target silhouette and combat computer, and is built by Tokasha MechWorks at Tokasha alongside other production sites.
