Recognition notes
The Dragonfly (Viper) H is a 40-ton medium that fights close-in, cruising at 86 km/h and topping out near 130, with a jump range of 240 meters. Where the Prime configuration mounts an SRM 4 in the left arm and a Medium Pulse Laser in the right arm, this configuration carries a Heavy Medium Laser in each arm. In place of the Prime's single Machine Gun in the right torso, it fields an ER Medium Laser and a Small Pulse Laser there, with a matching ER Medium Laser and Small Pulse Laser pairing in the left torso alongside an Anti-Missile System. It carries 11 double heat sinks against the Prime's 10, and shows the same low, hard-to-target silhouette. Kindraa Sainze Primary Production Facility builds it at Shadow, among other sites.
