Mad Cat III 3

The Mad Cat III 2 is a 55-ton sniper, a 3094 rebuild of the 3076 Mad Cat III X. Where the X arms each limb with an ER Medium Laser and ER Small Laser and backs its LRM 20s with Artemis V fire-control in both torsos, this variant simplifies the arms to a single Heavy Medium Laser apiece and drops the ER Micro Lasers and Artemis V guidance entirely; an LRM 20 still sits in the left torso and another in the right torso. Endo steel internal structure replaces the endo-composite structure, ferro-fibrous armor replaces the ferro-lamellor plating, and the heat-sink count climbs from 10 double to 16 double. It also adds a jump capability of 150 meters, absent on the X, while cruising speed holds at 65 km/h and top speed at 97. Enhanced communications gear and a maintenance-intensive build carry over as recognition traits, and Manufacturing Plant DSF-IT1 builds it at Itabaiana.
