Recognition notes
The Ishtar Heavy Fire Support Tank (Gauss) is a 65-ton wheeled combat vehicle fielded in the sniper role. Where the Original mounts an LB 10-X AC and an Ultra AC/10 in the turret, this variant carries a HAG/20 and a Gauss Rifle there instead, and the LRM 10 on the front gives way to an LRM 15 alongside a pair of ER Medium Lasers, also on the front. Cruising speed drops from 43 to 32 km/h and top speed falls from 65 to 54 km/h on the heavier armament. The front-mounted Artemis IV FCS and the CASE in the hull carry over from the Original, and the crew still fights behind Ferro-Fibrous armor.
