Recognition notes
The Grendel (Mongrel) Prime is a 45-ton striker built to close the gap and fight in the medium range band, cruising at 76 km/h and topping out near 119, with a 210-metre jump capability. Its main punch is an ER large laser in the right arm, backed by an ER small laser in the same limb, while the left arm carries a pair of ER medium lasers and a further ER medium laser sits in the head. A Streak SRM 6 in the right torso adds short-range bite, and the whole machine rides on a 315 XL fusion engine wrapped in ferro-fibrous armor over an endo steel skeleton. Its frame is built rugged and field-serviceable, and it comes off the line at Arcadia BattleMech Plant CM-T15, with additional production at other sites.
