Recognition notes
The LHU-3C is a 75-ton heavy that fights at long range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86, where the LHU-2B of 3062 was built as a mid-range skirmisher. In place of the LB 20-X AC in the right torso, this variant carries a Gauss rifle in the right arm, and the single LRM 15 in the left torso gives way to three separate LRM 5 racks in the same location. The ER Large Laser in the left arm carries over unchanged. Both versions share the 375 XL fusion engine, endo steel structure, and standard armor. Shengli Arms builds the LHU-3C at its Victoria factory.
