Recognition notes
The Mechbuster is a 50-ton fighter flown in the attack role, built around a single Autocannon/20 in the nose. It carries no secondary weapons and no other listed equipment, relying on the one heavy gun for its entire punch. The airframe wears standard armor and runs on an internal combustion engine rather than a fusion plant. Gorton, Kingsley, and Thorpe Enterprises builds the type at Rasalhague, with additional production at St. Ives, Chatham, and Pinard.
