Recognition notes

The Defiance DFN-3C is a 75-ton brawler running on a 300 XL fusion engine with endo steel internal structure, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65 km/h; its Triple-Strength Myomer allows a boosted cruising speed of 65 km/h under combat heat. An ER PPC sits in each arm, and the left torso carries two medium pulse lasers and two small lasers. An LB 10-X AC sits in the right torso, twin SRM 6 racks fill the center torso, and a machine gun sits in the head. Hyper-extending arm actuators mark both arms, and the chassis stands as a stable firing platform. Standard armor and 12 double heat sinks cover the frame, built by Defiance Industries at Hesperus II.
