Recognition notes
The Puma (Adder) I is a 35-ton striker fighting in close, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97. Where the Prime configuration mounts an ER PPC in each arm, this configuration carries an Improved Heavy Medium Laser and an ER Medium Laser in the left arm, and the same pairing again in the right arm. An SRM 6 sits in each torso alongside the Flamer in the center torso. The heat-sink count rises from 11 to 15 double sinks to handle the added short-range weapons. It shares the low, hard-to-target silhouette of the base configuration, and is built by Assault Tech Industries among other manufacturers.
