Recognition notes
The Hoverbike (Laser) is a 1.2-ton hover support vehicle fielded in the striker role, cruising at 130 km/h and reaching a top speed of 194. Where the base Hoverbike pairs a Support Laser with a Machine Gun (Support), both mounted in the front, this configuration replaces the machine gun with a second Support Laser, so two of the weapons fire from the front. Crew ride behind BAR 7 Armor, and the fuel cell engine carries over from the base configuration.
