Dasher (Fire Moth) (Aletha)

The Dasher (Fire Moth) (Aletha) is a 20-ton striker built on the same 200 XL fusion engine and ferro-fibrous shell as the Prime configuration. Where the Prime carries twin ER Medium Lasers and an SRM 6 and SRM 4 for its punch, this configuration fields three ER Small Lasers in the left arm alongside an ER Large Laser in the right arm, trading the Prime's missile racks for laser-only armament at both close and extended range. An ECM suite fills the left torso, absent from the Prime's loadout, and the type keeps its low, hard-to-target silhouette. It cruises at 108 km/h and tops out near 162, with MASC pushing it to a sprint speed of 216 km/h when engaged. Dominion Facility Kappa-4 on Goito heads the list of plants building the type, with production also running at several other sites.
