Recognition Notes
The Helios HEL-4A is a 60-ton heavy that fights at stand-off range, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65. Its right arm carries an ER PPC while a pair of medium lasers fills the left arm and a third sits in the head, and an MRM 20 in the right torso adds a burst of close support fire. CASE lines the right torso alongside the MRM ammunition, and the endo steel frame is described as an easily-serviced design. Ceres Metals Industries builds the type at its Warlock facility.
