Recognition notes
The Grasshopper GHR-8K is a 70-ton heavy skirmisher built around a 280 fusion engine, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65, with a single jump carrying it 120 metres. It carries four Light PPCs, one in each arm and one in each torso, alongside an ER Large Laser in the center torso and an LRM 5 in the head. CASE II lines the right torso, and the design carries a rugged, field-serviceable frame. LexaTech Industries builds it at Hun Ho.
