Recognition Notes

The J. Edgar Light Hover Tank (Flamer) is a 25-ton hover combat vehicle built for scouting, cruising at 119 km/h and reaching a top speed of 184. Where the base model carries a pair of SRM 2 launchers in its turret, this variant replaces them with a pair of Flamer (Vehicle) weapons, keeping the Medium Laser in the turret as well. The swap trades the base model's short-range missile punch for close-in incendiary fire, with armor and speed unchanged. It is fielded as a field refit rather than built at a dedicated factory.
