Recognition notes

The Firebee FRB-2E is a 35-ton brawler that closes to short range behind four SRM 2 launchers, one each in the left arm, left torso, right torso, and center torso. A Large Laser in the right arm gives it some reach before the SRM barrage takes over. The 175 fusion engine cruises at 54 km/h and tops out near 86, with a 150-meter jump capability for repositioning. Standard armor and structure cover the frame, and Confederation Defense Corporation builds it at its Boardwalk factory.
