Recognition notes
The Crab CRB-C is a 50-ton skirmisher that fights at medium range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out at 86. A Large Laser sits in each arm, and a Small Laser is fitted in the head for close work. Ferro-fibrous armor covers the chassis, and 16 single heat sinks handle the pair of large lasers. The type is noted as an easily-serviced design, and Cosara Weaponries builds it at Northwind.
