Recognition Notes
The Kestrel VTOL (SL) is a 25-ton VTOL combat vehicle flown as a scout, cruising at 130 km/h and reaching 194 at top speed. It replaces the Clan model's paired machine guns in the front with two Small Lasers, also in the front, and swaps the ferro-fibrous armor for standard plate. The infantry compartment shrinks from 4 tons to 1.5 tons, and the design carries Inner Sphere tech in place of the Clan tech base. It is a field refit built at various sites rather than a factory-produced machine.
