Recognition Notes
The Cataphract CTF-3L is a 70-ton heavy built as a sniper, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65, with MASC in the left torso pushing a sprint speed of 86 km/h when engaged. An ER PPC in the right arm anchors its long-range work alongside an LB 10-X AC in the right torso, while three Medium Pulse Lasers fill the right arm, left arm, and left torso and right torso rear-facing mounts round out its close-in defense. It runs on a 280 XL fusion engine with 16 double heat sinks and standard armor over a standard internal structure. Earthwerks Ltd. builds it at Grand Base.
