Recognition Notes
The Blade BLD-7R is a 35-ton striker built for close-in fighting, cruising at 76 km/h and reaching a top speed of 119. Its entire arsenal sits in the right arm: a Rotary AC/5, an ER Medium Laser, and an ER Small Laser. An endo steel skeleton and ferro-fibrous armor keep the weight down, and the design is noted as easily serviced in the field. Graham-Davis Enterprises builds the type at Tamarind.
