Recognition notes
The Cataphract CTF-2X is a 70-ton heavy brawler that closes to short range on a 280 fusion engine, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65. It mounts a Large Laser in the right arm and an SRM 4 in the left arm, while the right torso carries an AC/10 alongside a Medium Laser, with a second Medium Laser in the left torso. Standard armor covers a standard internal structure, and 14 single heat sinks handle the load. Earthwerks Ltd. builds the type at its Tikonov plant.
