Recognition notes
The Dragonfly (Viper) I is a 40-ton striker fielded alongside the Prime configuration of the same OmniMech, cruising at 86 km/h and topping out at 130, with a jump range of 240 metres. Where the Prime carries an SRM 4 and twin Medium Pulse Lasers in the right arm, this configuration mounts a Heavy Medium Laser in each arm along with an ATM 3 in the left arm, and a third Heavy Medium Laser sits in the right torso. In place of the Prime's paired Machine Guns, the right torso here houses a light active probe and a targeting computer, while the Anti-Missile System in the left torso carries over. The type keeps its low, hard-to-target silhouette, and is built by Kindraa Sainze Primary Production Facility along with several other production sites.
