Recognition notes
The GOL-6M is an 80-ton assault built for sniping, a 3083 rework of the 2652 GOL-1H that trades the original's PPC and pair of LRM 10 racks for a Gauss rifle and twin MML 7 launchers, both now in the torsos. Four leg-mounted lasers round out the loadout: an ER medium laser and small VSP laser fire forward from the right and left legs respectively, with a rear-facing ER medium laser and small VSP laser covering the leg rears. A lighter 240 fusion engine replaces the GOL-1H's 320, dropping cruising speed from 43 to 32 km/h and top speed from 65 to 54, while the heat-sink count falls from 17 single to 10 double. Corean Enterprises builds the type at its Stewart works.
