Recognition notes
The CPLT-C4 is a 65-ton missile boat fighting at long range, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65, a field rework of the 2561 CPLT-C1. In place of the LRM 15 racks the arms now carry an LRM 20 apiece, and the four medium lasers of the original are cut down to a pair of small lasers in the center torso, dropping the heat-sink count from 15 to 10 single. Like the C1, it carries minimal, weapon-pod arms without hands and a fragile head. It is built as a field refit at various sites rather than a factory-line production model.
