Recognition notes
The Bruin is an 80-ton assault mounted on a 320 XL fusion engine, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65, sluggish for its weight class though it can jump 120 metres. Its right arm carries a Gauss rifle and an ER medium laser, while the left arm pairs a large pulse laser with a second ER medium laser. Streak SRM 4 racks sit in each torso, and an LRM 10 rounds out the center torso. Standard armor covers a standard internal structure, and the chassis is built around a rugged, field-serviceable frame. Bergan Industries C-Division produces the Bruin at its Alshain works.
