Recognition notes
The MHL-6MC is a 3073 refit of the 3059 Marshal MHL-X1, a 55-ton skirmisher that cruises at 43 km/h and tops out near 65, with a jump range of 120 metres. Where the MHL-X1 carries a Medium Laser in the left arm and a Large Laser in the right, this refit swaps in a Light PPC and a Plasma Rifle at the same stations. The pair of Machine Guns in the left torso gives way to two Light Machine Guns and a Light Machine Gun Array in the same location, and the LRM 5 in the right torso is replaced by an MML 9; the Medium Pulse Laser in the right torso carries over. A 220 light fusion engine replaces the standard fusion plant, and the heat-sink count drops from 18 single to 10 double. The frame keeps its rugged, field-serviceable build and easily-serviced design, and Detroit Consolidated Mechworks handles the refit at its Detroit works.
