Recognition notes
The Minsk 2 is a 70-ton sniper, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out at 54, unchanged from the MNK-101's pace but built for a very different fight up close to its opening barrage. Where the MNK-101 carried a Gauss rifle in each arm, this configuration mounts an ER PPC in the Left Arm and another in the Right Arm, each backed by a PPC capacitor and a coolant pod. The Left Torso and Right Torso each trade their SRM 6 for a Streak SRM 6 and keep a Small Pulse Laser, while the LRM 10 and both Machine Guns give way to a 'Mech Mortar 4 in the Left Torso and a pair of Anti-BattleArmor Pods, one in each leg. The Right Torso's Beagle active probe is replaced by a Clan active probe alongside an Angel ECM suite, and the heat-sink count rises from 10 to 12 Clan double sinks. Bergan Industries C-Division builds the type at Alshain.
