Recognition notes
The King Crab KGC-008 is a 100-ton assault built for sniping at long range, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54, with a jump capability of 90 metres. A Heavy PPC sits in each arm, and a Light AC/2 rides in each torso, while a pair of ER Medium Lasers is packed into the head. CASE lines the left torso, and the right torso carries a C3i computer and a Guardian ECM suite, marking this out as a command 'Mech. Cosara Weaponries builds it at Northwind.
