Recognition Notes
The GRF-1S is a 55-ton skirmisher that fights at medium range, a lighter rebuild of the 2465 GRF-1A sniper that arrives in 2857. Where the GRF-1A carried a Primitive Prototype PPC in the right arm, this configuration replaces it with a Large Laser and a pair of Medium Lasers in the same limb, while the LRM 5 shifts from the right torso to the left. A lighter 275 fusion engine lifts cruising speed from 43 to 54 km/h and top speed from 65 to 86, and a jump capability of 150 metres surpasses the GRF-1A's 90. Standard armor replaces the primitive plating of the original, and the heat-sink count climbs from 11 to 16 single sinks. The right arm carries a jettisonable weapon mount, and both arms are built with reinforced battle fists on a rugged, field-serviceable frame. Defiance Industries builds the type at Hesperus II.
