Recognition notes
The FLE-14 rebuilds the Flea for speed, shedding 5 tons from the FLE-4's 20-ton frame while fitting a larger 135 fusion engine, and the changes show at the gauges: cruising climbs from 65 to 97 km/h and top speed from 97 to 151, fast for a 15-ton scout. In place of the FLE-4's twin small lasers, large laser, and rear-facing flamer, the FLE-14 fights close in with a single medium laser in the right arm. It keeps the minimal, weapon-pod arms without hands and the easily-serviced design of the earlier machine, and adds a low, hard-to-target silhouette. Earthwerks-FWL, Inc. builds it at Keystone.
