Recognition notes
The Blackjack BJ-1DC is a 45-ton brawler, a 3024 field refit of the 2756 BJ-1X. Each arm swaps its pair of flamers for a single AC/2, keeping the medium laser already mounted there. Each torso, left and right, adds a small laser next to its medium laser. A 180 fusion engine replaces the original 225 unit, cutting cruising speed from 54 km/h to 43 and top speed from 86 to 65 km/h; heat sinks fall from 18 to 12 single heat sinks. As a field refit it is assembled at various sites rather than a single manufacturer's line.
