Recognition notes
The Firestarter FS9-C is a 35-ton striker that closes in fast, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97, with a 180-metre jump. Each arm carries a Flamer and a Medium Laser, and the torsos are packed with one-shot rocket racks: two Rocket Launchers 10s in the left torso, two Rocket Launchers 15s in the right torso, and two more Rocket Launcher 10s in the center torso. Its ferro-fibrous armor and 10 double heat sinks support that short-range volley of laser, flame, and rocket fire. Gift of the Magi, Inc. builds the type at Baltazar III.
