Recognition notes
The J. Edgar Light Hover Tank (Chemical) is a 25-ton hover combat vehicle fielded as a scout, cruising at 119 km/h and topping out at 184. Its turret trades the original's Medium Laser for a Medium Chemical Laser and swaps the paired SRM 2 launchers for a single SRM 4, with two machine guns added alongside them in the same turret. The hull runs on a Fuel Cell engine, replacing the original's Fusion plant, and carries Heavy Ferro-Fibrous armor in place of the Standard plate. Scarborough Manufacturers builds this configuration at Al Na'ir.
