Recognition notes
The Blackjack BJ-1DB is a 45-ton brawler built around a lighter 180 fusion engine in place of the BJ-1X's 225, dropping cruising speed from 54 to 43 km/h and top speed from 86 to 65 km/h. Where the original packed medium lasers and flamers across both arms and torsos, the BJ-1DB strips the loadout down to a Large Laser and a Medium Laser in each arm, leaving the torsos unarmed. Heat sinks drop slightly from 18 to 17 single. As a field refit, it carries no single manufacturer or factory of record, being assembled at various sites.
