Recognition notes
The Men Shen MS1-OB is a 55-ton striker that closes to short range, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out at 97, with a MASC-driven sprint of 130 km/h when engaged. Where the MS1-O carries a Medium Pulse Laser in each arm slot and an LRM 15 with Artemis IV fire control in the right torso, this configuration fields an LB 2-X AC in each arm and four ER Medium Lasers, two in the left torso and two in the right. A Beagle active probe sits in the center torso, and enhanced communications gear rounds out the fit. Hellespont 'Mech Works builds it at Sian.
