Recognition notes
The BTZ-4F rebuilds the Blitzkrieg as a 50-ton skirmisher, a 3074 reworking of the 3061 BTZ-3F striker. In place of the Ultra AC/20 in the center torso, it carries a Heavy PPC in the left torso, and a targeting computer in the right torso backs the shot. A C3 slave unit sits in the head, and light ferro-fibrous armor replaces the base model's ferro-fibrous plating. Where the BTZ-3F had no jump capability, this variant adds a jump range of 210 meters while holding the same 76 km/h cruising and 119 km/h top speeds on its 350 XL fusion engine. The armless configuration carries over from the BTZ-3F. The Arcturan Arms Refit Facility handles this rebuild at Arcturus, with production also continuing at Coventry Metal Works.
