Recognition notes
The Phoenix Hawk PXH-3S is a 45-ton striker that fights close in, a 3042 rebuild of the 2568 PXH-1's skirmisher loadout. It cruises at 65 km/h and tops out at 97, and a MASC unit in the center torso pushes it to a sprint speed of 130 km/h when engaged. Where the PXH-1 mounts a medium laser and a machine gun in each arm alongside a Large Laser in the right arm, the -3S pairs a medium laser with two machine guns in the left arm and carries a Large Pulse Laser and a medium laser in the right arm, backed there by an Anti-Missile System. A 270 XL fusion engine stands in place of the PXH-1's standard fusion powerplant, and CASE lines the left torso. Ferro-fibrous armor and 10 double heat sinks replace the PXH-1's standard armor and 10 single heat sinks. The design carries a jettisonable arm weapon and enhanced communications gear, and stands as a command 'Mech, built by Gift of the Magi, Inc. at Baltazar III.
