Recognition notes
The Mantis MTS-T is a 30-ton striker built for close-in fighting, rebuilt in 3063 from the 3052 SA-MN scout. Where the SA-MN carried a single Medium Laser in the center torso with a Small Laser in each torso, the MTS-T fields ER Medium Lasers in the Left Torso, Right Torso, and Head, paired with an ER Small Laser in the Left Torso and another in the Right Torso. A targeting computer sits in the Right Torso, and the heat-sink count drops from 12 to 10 double sinks. It keeps the 270 XL fusion engine and MASC in the Left Torso, cruising at 97 km/h and topping out near 151, with a sprint speed of 194 km/h when MASC is engaged. Claws remain fitted to both arms, and Solaris Arms builds it on Solaris VII.
