Recognition notes
The Cephalus A is a 25-ton scout that cruises at 108 km/h and tops out near 162, with a jump range of 210 metres. Where the Prime configuration carries a Light TAG alongside a pair of Laser AMS units in the torsos, this configuration fields a single TAG in the left torso and only one Laser AMS, mounted in the right torso. It keeps the armless configuration and the maintenance-intensive design of its sibling, running on the same 250 Clan XXL fusion engine and Clan ferro-lamellor armor. Kerensky Memorial Manufacturing builds it at Strana Mechty.
