Recognition notes
The HBK-4G (Shakir) is a 50-ton brawler, a 3039 rework of the 2572 original that trades punch for reach. Where the base HBK-4G carries an AC/20 in the right torso, this version fields a lighter AC/10 in the same location, and its two Medium Lasers in the arms give way to a Prototype Medium Pulse Laser in the left arm and another in the right arm. The Small Laser in the head carries over unchanged, and both arms still carry reinforced battle fists. Cruising and top speeds hold at 43 and 65 km/h, and the type is built by KaliYama Weapons Industries, with production also underway at other sites.
