Recognition notes
The Phoenix Hawk PXH-4W is a 45-ton striker, rebuilt in 3079 from the 2568-era PXH-1 skirmisher. Where the original mounted a Large Laser, two Medium Lasers, and two Machine Guns across its arms, the PXH-4W carries a Light PPC and an ER Medium Laser in each arm. A lighter 225 light fusion engine replaces the PXH-1's 270 fusion engine, and cruising speed falls from 65 to 54 km/h with a top speed of 86 km/h; jump range rises from 180 to 240 metres. Endo steel internal structure replaces the standard structure of the original, and a Guardian ECM suite now sits in the right torso. The type remains a command 'Mech with a jettisonable arm weapon and enhanced communications gear, and it is built by Pinard Protectorates Limited at its Pinard facility.
