Recognition notes

The Blade BLD-XR is a 35-ton light that fights at long range, cruising at 76 km/h and reaching 119 km/h on its 245 XL fusion engine. Each arm carries a Light PPC alongside a Light AC/2, giving it four long-reaching weapons for its weight. Endo steel structure and reactive armor keep the frame light, and the design is noted as easily serviced. New Hessen WorkMechs builds it at New Hessen.
