Recognition notes
The Hiryo Armored Infantry Transport "Hound" is a 40-ton WiGE combat vehicle fielded as a scout, cruising at 86 km/h with a top speed near 130. Where the base Hiryo mounts a Snub-Nose PPC up front, the Hound carries a Medium X-Pulse Laser and a C3 Remote Sensor Launcher in the same position, tied to C3 Sensors in the hull. A Bloodhound active probe sits up front as well, and the hull carries environmental sealing. The infantry compartment shrinks from 8 tons to 4 tons, and the Light engine of the original gives way to an XL engine. Armor remains Heavy Ferro-Fibrous. Pesht Motors builds the Hound at Unity.
