Recognition notes
The LGH-4W is a 55-ton skirmisher, a 3065 rework of the 3064 LGH-4Y that trades close-range punch for precision. Where the LGH-4Y carries a pair of SRM 2 racks in the right torso, this variant drops them in favor of a targeting computer in the same location, sharpening the fire of the Large Pulse Laser in the right arm. The twin ER Medium Lasers in the left torso and the ER Small Laser in the center torso carry over unchanged, and the 385 XL fusion engine still drives it to a cruising speed of 76 km/h and a top speed of 119. Hyper-extending arm actuators remain a visible feature of the design, which is built by Martinson Armaments at Terra.
