Recognition Notes
The Linebacker Prime is a 65-ton skirmisher that fights at stand-off range, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97 on its 390 XL fusion engine. Twin ER PPCs fill both arms, with an LRM 5 in the left torso and a Streak SRM 4 in the right torso backing them up at closer range. A rear-facing ER Small Laser sits in the right torso, and the endo steel frame under ferro-fibrous armor and 14 double heat sinks holds the design as a stable firing platform. WC Site 1 builds it at Arc-Royal.
