Recognition notes
The Marauder II MAD-5W is a 100-ton assault that fights at long range, a 3070 field refit of the 3012 MAD-4A original. Where the MAD-4A carries a PPC and a medium laser in each arm, the MAD-5W mounts a Snub-Nose PPC in the left arm and a second in the right arm, and a Heavy PPC in the right torso replaces the Large Laser. Endo steel internal structure replaces the MAD-4A's standard structure, and a C3i computer sits in the left torso. Jump range extends from 90 to 150 metres, while cruising speed holds at 32 km/h and top speed at 54. The 16 double heat sinks are fewer in count than the MAD-4A's 29 single sinks. It keeps the command 'Mech's low, hard-to-target silhouette and hyper-extending arm actuators, and is assembled as a field refit at various sites.
