Recognition notes
The HEP-2H is a 2567 rebuild of the 2460 original, still a 75-ton missile boat but built around a heavier 225 fusion engine that lifts its cruising speed from 22 to 32 km/h and its top speed from 32 to 54 km/h. It adds an LRM 10 in the left torso alongside the Large Laser in the left arm, the Sniper in the right torso, the SRM 6 in the center torso, and the Medium Laser in the head carried over from the HEP-1H. CASE now lines the left torso, standard armor replaces the primitive plating of the original, and 10 double heat sinks stand in for the earlier 11 single sinks. The type keeps its reinforced legs and stands as a stable firing platform, and Mitchell Vehicles builds it at Graham IV.
