Recognition notes
The Lao Hu LHU-2B is a 75-ton heavy that mixes an ER Large Laser in the left arm with an LB 20-X AC in the right torso and an LRM 15 in the left torso. Its 375 XL fusion engine drives it to a cruising speed of 54 km/h and a top speed of 86 km/h, respectable for its bulk, and an endo steel skeleton under standard armor keeps the weight distributed for that loadout. Ten double heat sinks handle the ER Large Laser and autocannon combination. Shengli Arms builds the type at its Victoria facility.
