Recognition Notes
The Linebacker B is a 65-ton heavy skirmisher, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97. Where the Prime mounts an ER PPC in each arm, this configuration carries three ER medium lasers, two in the left arm and one in the right. In place of the Prime's LRM 5, the left torso here holds an ER small laser, and where the Prime fields a Streak SRM 4 in the right torso, this configuration carries a Gauss rifle in that same location. The stable firing platform carries over from the Prime configuration. WC Site 1 builds it at Arc-Royal, with other sites also producing the type.
