Recognition Notes
The Grasshopper GHR-5N is a 70-ton skirmisher built around a 280 fusion engine, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65, with a jump range of 120 metres. Five medium lasers are scattered through the left arm, right arm, left torso, right torso, and head, and a PPC sits in the right torso alongside the sixth. Standard armor covers the frame, and 22 single heat sinks handle the engine's output. The chassis has a rugged, field-serviceable frame, and this example was assembled as a field refit at various sites rather than a single dedicated plant.
