Recognition notes
The Nyx NX-80 is a 30-ton striker that fights close in, cruising at 108 km/h and topping out at 162, brisk for a machine of its weight. An ER Medium Laser sits in each arm, an ER Small Laser rests in the left torso, and an SRM 6 fills the center torso. Its 300 XL fusion engine and endo steel structure run under ferro-fibrous armor, cooled by 10 double heat sinks. The type carries a low, hard-to-target silhouette, though it is known as a maintenance-intensive design. Diplan 'MechYards builds it at Aix-la-Chapelle, with production also at Terra.
