Recognition notes
The Lightning Attack Hovercraft (ERML) is a 35-ton hover combat vehicle fielded as a striker, cruising at 119 km/h with a top speed near 184. Where the base model mounts twin medium pulse lasers up front alongside single-shot SRM 4s on the right side and left side, this variant strips out both SRM 4 OS launchers and carries only two ER medium lasers, both firing from the front. The hull keeps its ferro-fibrous armor. Kressly Warworks continues to build it at Epsilon Eridani.
