Compare this unitRecognition Notes
The HNT-161 is a 20-ton striker, a 3052 rebuild of the 2760-vintage HNT-151 that keeps the same weapons fit and cruises at 54 km/h with a top speed near 86, jumping 150 metres. The small laser stays in the left arm, the medium laser in the right arm, and the LRM 5 in the right torso, but endo steel internal structure replaces the standard structure and ferro-fibrous armor plating replaces the base model's standard armor. CASE now lines the left torso, guarding against ammunition explosions the original lacked. The chassis keeps its minimal, weapon-pod arms without hands and its low, hard-to-target silhouette, and Kallon Weapon Industries builds it at Talon (Wernke).
