Recognition notes
The Porcupine PRC-1N is a 20-ton striker built to close hard and fast, cruising at 97 km/h and topping out near 151, with a supercharger engaged pushing that to 194. Its firepower is four medium lasers, one in each arm and one in each torso, all fed by an XL fusion engine and endo steel structure under ferro-fibrous plating. Armor spikes cover the left arm, right arm, left torso, right torso, and head. It is built by Innovative Design Concepts on Solaris VII.
