Recognition Notes
The Hatchetman HCT-6S is a 45-ton brawler that closes to close range on a 180 light fusion engine, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65, with a single jump carrying it 120 metres. Its arms and left torso each mount an ER medium laser, and an LB 10-X AC sits in the right torso with CASE lining the same compartment. The right arm still carries its hatchet alongside the laser array, backing the energy weapons with a melee option at contact range. Ferro-fibrous armor covers the frame, and an anti-aircraft fire control system is built into the targeting suite. Defiance Industries builds the type at Hesperus II.
