Recognition notes
The Mantis SA-MN is a 30-ton scout that closes to short range on a 270 XL fusion engine, cruising at 97 km/h and topping out at 151, with a MASC-boosted sprint of 194 km/h when engaged. Its armament is light for the weight class: a Medium Laser in the center torso backed by a Small Laser in each side torso. Both arms carry a claw in place of a hand actuator. Solaris Arms builds the type at its Solaris VII plant.
