Recognition Notes
The Mackie MSK-5S is a 100-ton assault that fights at long range, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54, sluggish even for its bulk. A Primitive Prototype PPC fills the left arm, an AC/5 the right arm, and a Large Laser sits in the center torso. Its primitive armor and standard internal structure reflect a rugged, field-serviceable frame, and the whole machine is built as an easily-serviced design. Edasich Motors produces the type, with additional lines at New Earth, Oriente, and Terra.
