Recognition notes
The Linebacker G is a 65-ton heavy that fights at stand-off range, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out at 97. Where the Prime configuration mounts a pair of ER PPCs, this configuration carries an Improved Heavy Large Laser in each arm, and in place of the base's LRM 5 and Streak SRM 4 it fields a single improved one-shot Streak SRM 2 in the right torso. The heat-sink count rises from 14 to 18 double sinks. It keeps the stable firing platform of the base configuration, and is built by WC Site 1, with other manufacturers producing it at additional sites.
