Recognition notes
The Lupus C is a 60-ton heavy configured as a skirmisher, an alternate configuration of the Lupus Prime that trades the missile boat's stand-off missile fit for laser-driven medium-range fighting. Where the Prime mounts an ER Medium Laser in each arm, this configuration carries an Improved Heavy Medium Laser in the same locations, and in place of the twin LRM 20 racks it fields an Improved Heavy Large Laser in each torso. A targeting computer sits in the right arm and a coolant pod in the left, and a supercharger in the center torso gives it a sprint speed of 108 km/h when engaged. It cruises at 54 km/h and tops out at 86 km/h, matching the Prime's pace, and carries 18 double heat sinks against the Prime's 10. Trellshire Heavy Industries builds it at Marik.
