Recognition notes
The Bombard BMB-016 is a 50-ton sniper that fights at long range, cruising at 22 km/h and topping out near 32 km/h; its triple-strength myomer lets it push a boosted cruising speed of 43 km/h under combat heat. Where the BMB-010 carried a pair of AC/20s in the arms for close brawling, the BMB-016 replaces both with a Light Gauss Rifle in the left arm and a second in the right, and adds a medium laser in the left torso and another in the right torso. CASE II sits in each arm, and a Chameleon light polarization shield covers both arms, both torsos, and both legs. Ten compact heat sinks replace the base model's ten single heat sinks, and the type is a field refit produced at various sites.
