Recognition Notes
The Kestrel VTOL is a 25-ton VTOL combat vehicle built for scouting, cruising at 130 km/h and reaching up to 194, quick for its size. It carries the same paired Machine Guns in the front as its Clan-built forerunner, but trades that model's ferro-fibrous plate for standard armor. The infantry compartment shrinks from 4 tons to 3.5 tons on this Inner Sphere-built version. General Motors/Blackwell Corporation manufactures it at New Valencia.
