Recognition notes
The LGH-5W is a 55-ton skirmisher, a 3065 rebuild of the 3064 LGH-4Y original that cruises at 76 km/h and tops out near 119. In place of the Large Pulse Laser the right arm now carries an ER PPC, and the twin SRM 2 racks are removed from the right torso in favor of a targeting computer. The paired ER Medium Lasers in the left torso and the ER Small Laser in the center torso carry over from the LGH-4Y. The chassis keeps its hyper-extending arm actuators, and Martinson Armaments builds it at Terra.
