Recognition notes
The Osteon U is an 85-ton juggernaut built around the same 255 XL fusion engine and ferro-lamellor armor as the Prime configuration, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54. Where the Prime configuration mounts an Improved ATM 9 in each arm and torso, this configuration fields an LRT 15 in the Left Arm, Right Arm, Left Torso, and Right Torso, each linked to its own Artemis V fire-control system. A HarJel system backs each of the four weapon bays in place of the Prime configuration's CASE II, and an underwater maneuvering unit sits in both torsos. The Nova combined electronic-warfare system remains housed in the head, and Kerensky Memorial Manufacturing builds the type at Strana Mechty.
