Recognition notes
The Lightning Attack Hovercraft (ERSL) is a 35-ton hover combat vehicle fielded as a striker, cruising at 119 km/h and reaching 184 at top speed. Where the original mounts twin medium pulse lasers up front along with a single-shot SRM 4 on each side, this variant strips the side-mounted launchers entirely and carries a pair of ER small lasers and an ER medium laser, all facing front. The change trades the original's short-range missile punch for a lighter, laser-only front battery, though the ferro-fibrous armor and the hull's speed carry over unchanged. Kressly Warworks builds this version at Epsilon Eridani.
