Recognition notes
The Ghost GST-50 is a 50-ton striker that fights close in, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97. Where the GST-10 fought at long range with paired Light PPCs and MML 3 racks, this model rebuilds around a large pulse laser in each torso and an SRM 6 in the center torso, with a single ER small laser in the right arm for backup. The 300 light fusion engine replaces the GST-10's XL unit, and endo steel structure takes the place of the standard frame, though standard armor now covers the machine in place of the base model's stealth plating and the heat-sink count falls from 14 to 10 double sinks. Enhanced communications gear carries over from the GST-10, and Earthwerks-FWL, Inc. builds the type at Calloway VI.
