Recognition Notes
The Nova Cat D is a 70-ton heavy that fights close in, cruising at 43 km/h and topping out near 65. Where the Prime configuration mounts three ER Large Lasers in the left arm and twin ER PPCs in the right for long-range sniping, this configuration carries an LB 10-X AC and a Heavy Large Laser in the left arm and a pair of Heavy Large Lasers in the right, trading reach for close-range weight of fire. A targeting computer sits in the left torso, and the heat-sink count falls from 25 to 20 double sinks. Barcella Alpha builds it at Barcella, with production also at Irece.
