Recognition notes
The Prometheus is a 75-ton heavy fielded as a sniper, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86 on a 375 Inner Sphere XL fusion engine. Its arms carry a Large Pulse Laser and Medium Pulse Laser on the left and an ER PPC on the right, while each torso pairs an LRM 15 with an SRM 6. The left torso adds three Machine Guns and the right torso two more, giving the design close-in teeth well beyond its stated role. Clan endo steel forms the internal structure beneath Inner Sphere ferro-fibrous armor, and thirteen Inner Sphere double heat sinks manage the mixed battery. It is built by NAIS at the Dark Mirage Facility on Hyde.
