Recognition Notes
The Dasher (Fire Moth) J is a 20-ton striker that fights close in, cruising at 108 km/h and topping out near 162, with a MASC-driven sprint of 216 km/h. Where the Prime configuration carries twin ER medium lasers in the left arm alongside an SRM 6 and SRM 4, this configuration fields an ER small pulse laser and a pair of ER small lasers in the left arm and swaps the missile racks for a plasma cannon in the right arm. Ferro-fibrous armor and the 200 XL fusion engine carry over, and the type keeps its low, hard-to-target silhouette. It is built at Dominion Facility Kappa-4 on Goito, with other lines producing it as well.
