Recognition Notes
The Black Hawk (Nova) Prime is a 50-ton skirmisher that closes to point-blank range and unleashes twelve ER medium lasers, six in each arm. A 250 XL fusion engine drives it to a cruising speed of 54 km/h and a top speed of 86, with a single jump carrying it 150 metres. Eighteen double heat sinks handle the enormous heat load of that laser battery, and standard armor covers a low, hard-to-target silhouette. A combat computer aids its targeting, and Tokasha MechWorks builds it at its Tokasha facility, with production also carried out at other sites.
