Recognition Notes
The Cephalus U is a 25-ton scout that cruises at 108 km/h and tops out near 162, fast for its weight. Where the Prime configuration carries a Light TAG and a pair of Laser AMS units in the torsos, this configuration strips those away in favor of a single LRT 5 in the right torso. The 250 Clan XXL fusion engine, Clan endo steel structure, and Clan ferro-lamellor armor carry over unchanged from the Prime. It shares the armless configuration and the maintenance-intensive reputation common to the chassis, and Kerensky Memorial Manufacturing builds it at Strana Mechty.
