Compare this unitRecognition Notes
The ON3-M rebuilds the Orion into a 75-ton sniper, a 3083 reworking of the 2453 brawler original. Where the ON1-C carried twin Medium Lasers and an AC/5, this variant fields a Gauss Rifle in the right torso, an Extended LRM 15 and an ER Medium Laser in the left arm, and a second ER Medium Laser in the right arm, with a TAG unit in the head for spotting. A 300 XL fusion engine replaces the ON1-C's 360 fusion engine, holding the same cruising speed of 43 km/h and top speed of 65 km/h, and standard armor replaces the original's primitive plating. CASE II now lines both the left torso and right torso, and the design remains easily serviced. Kali Yama/Alphard Trading Corp. builds it at Kendall.
