Recognition notes

The Burke Defense Tank is a 75-ton tracked combat vehicle built for long-range sniping, cruising at 22 km/h with a top speed of 32, slow even for a heavy tank. Its turret carries three PPCs, and an LRM 10 fires from the front of the hull. The crew rides behind ferro-fibrous armor. Foretechno builds the type at Terra.
