Recognition notes
The HOP-4D is a 3050 refit of the 2578-vintage HOP-4A, a 55-ton sniper that cruises at 43 km/h and tops out near 65. Where the original carried its LRM 5 and AC/10 buried in the torsos on an armless chassis, this refit relocates the weapons into a pair of minimal, weapon-pod arms without hands: an LRM 5 in the left arm and an LB 10-X AC in the right. The LB 10-X AC in place of the AC/10 lets the design switch between slug and cluster fire at range. Blackwell Corporation carries out the refit at Outreach.
