Recognition notes
The MTS-T3 is a 30-ton striker that fights close in, cruising at 97 km/h and topping out at 151, with a sprint speed of 194 km/h when its MASC is engaged. Where the 3052 SA-MN scout carried a pair of Small Lasers and a single Medium Laser, this 3063 rebuild replaces that trio with ER Medium Lasers in the left torso, right torso, and head, backed by ER Small Lasers in the left torso and right torso. Reactive armor replaces the base model's ferro-fibrous plating, and the heat-sink count drops from 12 double to 10 double. The claw on each arm and the left-torso MASC carry over from the SA-MN. Solaris Arms builds the type on Solaris VII.
