Recognition notes
The Crusader CRD-8R is a 65-ton heavy fielded as a missile boat, cruising at 43 km/h on a 260 XL fusion engine and topping out at 65. Each arm carries an LRM 15 backed by an Artemis IV fire-control system, along with an ER Medium Laser and a Machine Gun, while a Streak SRM 6 is set into each leg. Light ferro-fibrous armor covers the frame, and CASE II lines both the left torso and right torso. The chassis is built as a rugged, field-serviceable frame, easily serviced in the field.
