Recognition Notes
The Bowman 4 is a 70-ton heavy that fights at long range as a dedicated missile boat, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. It carries a pair of Arrow IV launchers, one in each torso, and an ECM suite in the head. Anti-personnel pods sit in both legs, and the chassis is built as a stable firing platform on endo steel structure under standard armor. Niles Industriplex Epsilon builds the type at its Niles factory.
