Recognition notes
The Dasher (Fire Moth) Prime is a 20-ton striker built for close-in work, cruising at 108 km/h and topping out at 162, with MASC in the center torso pushing it to a sprint speed of 216 km/h when engaged. It carries a pair of ER medium lasers in the left arm, an SRM 6 in the right arm, and an SRM 4 in the right torso. Ferro-fibrous armor and endo steel structure keep the frame light, and the type presents a low, hard-to-target silhouette. It is built at Dominion Facility Kappa-4 on Goito, with production also running at other Clan sites.
