Recognition notes
The HSN-8E is a 45-ton missile boat, a 3068 rebuild of the 3062 HSN-7D. Where the original mounted a medium pulse laser in each arm, this configuration carries an ER medium laser in the left arm and another in the right arm, alongside the unchanged LRM 10 there; the right torso keeps its medium pulse laser. Artemis IV fire-control systems are fitted to the right arm and left torso, tying into the LRM 10 racks in those locations, and a Guardian ECM suite remains in the center torso. It cruises at 65 km/h and tops out near 97, with a 180-meter jump capability, built by General Motors at Talcott.
