Recognition Notes
The LCT-7S is a 3128 rebuild of the 2499-era Locust, a 20-ton scout that still fights close in on machine guns and a single laser. A 240 Clan XL fusion engine replaces the original 160 fusion engine, lifting cruising speed from 86 to 130 km/h and top speed from 130 to 194 km/h, fast even for a light chassis. Inner Sphere endo steel structure and Inner Sphere ferro-fibrous armor replace the standard structure and armor of the LCT-1V, and 10 Inner Sphere double heat sinks stand in place of the earlier 10 single heat sinks. The center torso ER medium laser replaces the base medium laser, the twin machine guns in the arms carry over, and Inner Sphere CASE now lines the left torso. It keeps the low, hard-to-target silhouette and minimal, handless weapon-pod arms, and Defiance Industries builds it at Furillo.
