Recognition notes
The HBK-4SP is a 50-ton juggernaut that fights close-in, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65. Where the HBK-4G centers its firepower on a single AC/20 in the right torso, this variant strips that weapon out and fields four medium lasers, two in each arm, along with an SRM 6 in the left torso and another in the right torso. The small laser in the head carries over from the original, and the heat-sink count climbs from 13 to 19 single sinks to cope with the denser energy loadout. Both arms keep their reinforced battle fists, and the type is assembled as a field refit at various sites rather than a single dedicated plant.
