Recognition notes

The Bushwacker BSW-X4 rebuilds the chassis around a sniper role, where the 3053 BSW-X1 fought as a skirmisher; both share the same 275 XL fusion engine and the 54/86 km/h cruising and top speeds, but a MASC unit in the right torso lets the BSW-X4 sprint to 108 km/h when engaged. In place of the BSW-X1's LRM 5 and AC/10 in the arms, this variant carries an MML 5 in the left arm and a Plasma Rifle in the right arm. The left torso swaps its LRM 5 and Machine Gun for a Medium Laser and a second MML 5, and the right torso's Machine Gun gives way to a Medium Laser; the ER Large Laser carries over in the center torso. Endo steel structure and light ferro-fibrous armor replace the BSW-X1's standard structure and ferro-fibrous plating, and a CASE II installation in the left torso stands in for the paired CASE units of the original, with the right torso now given over to the MASC. Both machines share the low, hard-to-target silhouette, and TharHes Industries builds the type at Tharkad.
