Recognition notes
The Orca OC-1X is a 200-ton superheavy that fights at long range, cruising at 22 km/h and topping out at 32, ponderous even by the standards of its class. Its arms alone carry a Gauss rifle and an ER Large Laser on the left side and a Sniper Cannon on the right, while both torsos mount an ER PPC and the left torso adds an LRM 20. Closer-in defense comes from an SRM 6 and a Small X-Pulse Laser, both in the center torso. CASE II lines both the left and right torsos, and a Guardian ECM suite sits in the head. The type is listed as obsolete by 3105. Krupp Armament Works builds the Orca at its Terra plant.
