Lao Hu LHU-4E

The LHU-4E is a 75-ton sniper, a rework of the 3062 LHU-2B skirmisher that trades close-in punch for stand-off firepower on the same 375 XL fusion engine, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Where the LHU-2B carried an ER large laser, an LB 20-X AC, and an LRM 15, this configuration mounts a Heavy PPC in the left arm, a Gauss Rifle in the right arm, and three Rocket Launchers 10s in the left torso. Stealth armor replaces the base model's standard plating, and a Guardian ECM suite sits in the head. The heat-sink count rises from 10 to 14, all double-strength. Shengli Arms builds it at Victoria, with Ceres Metals Industries producing it at Sian as well.
