Recognition notes
The J. Edgar Light Hover Tank (Light PPC) is a 25-ton hover combat vehicle built for scouting, cruising at 119 km/h and reaching 184. In place of the base model's medium laser, the turret carries a Light PPC alongside a pair of SRM 2 IOS launchers, replacing the plain SRM 2 launchers of the original. A targeting computer sits in the hull, and the crew rides behind Heavy Ferro-Fibrous armor where the base model uses Standard plate. StarCorps Industries builds this configuration at Crofton.
