Recognition notes
The Cougar E is a 35-ton light that fights close in, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Where the Prime configuration mounts twin Large Pulse Lasers and a pair of LRM 10 racks for stand-off sniping, this configuration carries an ATM 6 in each arm and swaps the Prime's torso LRM 10s for ER Medium Lasers in the left torso and right torso, with a third ER Medium Laser in the head. The heat-sink count rises from 10 double to 13 double to handle the shift to a brawling loadout. Ironhold Alpha Complex builds it at Ironhold, with Olivetti Weaponry also producing the type.
