Recognition notes
The Firefly FFL-3A is a 30-ton striker riding a 150 XL fusion engine, cruising at 54 km/h and reaching 86 km/h, with a single jump carrying it 120 metres. Its firepower is spread thin: three medium lasers sit one each in the left torso, right torso, and center torso, backed by small lasers in the left arm, right arm, left torso, and center torso, while an LRM 5 in the right torso gives it some reach and a TAG unit in the left arm marks targets for other units. Ferro-fibrous armor plating and ten double heat sinks round out the chassis. The arms are minimal weapon pods without hands, built to carry ordnance rather than grapple. Coventry/Earthwerks Combine builds the type at its Terra works.
