Recognition notes
The Men Shen MS1-OD is a 55-ton striker, cruising at 65 km/h and reaching 97 km/h, with a MASC-boosted sprint of 130 km/h. Where the MS1-O base configuration carries four medium pulse lasers in the arms and an LRM 15 with Artemis IV fire control in the right torso, this configuration mounts an SRM 4 in each arm, pairs two medium pulse lasers in the left torso, and swaps the LRM 15 for an ER PPC in the right torso. It carries an extra double heat sink over the base configuration, rising from 10 to 11, and retains the MASC in the left torso and the Beagle active probe in the center torso. Enhanced communications gear rounds out its recognition features, and Hellespont 'Mech Works builds it at Sian.
