Recognition notes
The Hellstar 3 is a 95-ton assault built for close brawling, though its main punch is thrown from range with four ER Large Lasers, one in each arm and one in each torso. Two Medium Pulse Lasers in the center torso back up the close-in work, and a targeting computer in the left torso sharpens the aim of the whole battery. An active probe rides in the right torso and an ECM suite in the head round out its sensor fit. Standard armor and an endo steel frame cover a 380 XL fusion engine that carries the machine to a cruising 43 km/h and a top speed near 65. It is built by WC Site 1 at Arc-Royal, with production also carried out at Csesztreg.
