Recognition notes
The Blackjack BJ2-O is a 50-ton brawler that closes to point-blank range, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65. Each arm carries an Ultra AC/5 alongside a pair of Medium Lasers, and two Machine Guns sit in each torso side. A 200 XL fusion engine and endo steel structure free up the mass for this arm-heavy arsenal, and a 120-metre jump lets it reposition over rough ground. Luthien Armor Works builds it at Luthien, with production also underway at several other sites.
