Recognition Notes
The Falconer FLC-8R is a 75-ton skirmisher that pairs stand-off and close-range punch, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86 with a 150-metre jump capability. An ER PPC sits in the left arm opposite a Gauss rifle in the right, while twin medium lasers in the left torso and another pair in the right torso give it teeth up close. Its 375 XL fusion engine and endo steel structure carry standard armor, and the chassis is built as a stable firing platform. TharHes Industries manufactures the type at Tharkad, with General Motors also producing it elsewhere.
