Recognition notes
The LNG-3 is a 35-ton striker that fights close-in, cruising at 76 km/h and topping out near 119. A 3062 rework of the 3054 LNG-1B, it swaps the earlier Medium Laser in each torso for a Medium X-Pulse Laser, and the Small Laser in each torso for an ER Small Laser. A 245 XXL fusion engine replaces the LNG-1B's 245 XL unit without changing the speed profile. The Narc in the right arm and the SRM 6 in each torso carry over from the LNG-1B, and the type remains a maintenance-intensive design. Innovative Design Concepts builds it on Solaris VII.
