Recognition notes
The Crossbow D is a 65-ton missile boat that cruises at 54 km/h and tops out near 86, the same pace as the Prime configuration. Where the Prime mounts an LRM 20 in each arm, this configuration carries a 'Mech Mortar 8 in the left arm and a matching 'Mech Mortar 8 in the right arm. The engine, structure, and standard armor match the Prime's fit, and heat management still relies on 10 double heat sinks. Novy Minsky Armaments Plant builds it at New Kent, with production also carried out by Arcturan Arms.
