Recognition notes
The Dasher (Fire Moth) K is a 20-ton striker that fights close-in, cruising at 108 km/h and topping out near 162, with a MASC-driven sprint to 216 km/h. Where the Prime configuration carries twin ER Medium Lasers in the left arm and SRM racks split between the right arm and right torso, the K fields a Heavy Medium Laser in each arm alongside three Light Machine Guns and a Light Machine Gun Array per arm. Anti-BattleArmor Pods sit in the left leg and right leg, a fitting the Prime does not carry. The 'Mech keeps its low, hard-to-target silhouette, and Dominion Facility Kappa-4 builds it at Goito along with several other sites.
