Recognition notes
The Puma (Adder) L is a 35-ton striker built for close-in work, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97, with a jump capability of 180 metres the Prime configuration lacks. Where the Prime carries an ER PPC in each arm, this configuration mounts a Streak LRM 5 in the left arm and a matching Streak LRM 5 in the right, backed by an ER medium laser in each torso. A Flamer sits in the center torso as on the Prime, and the machine carries one fewer heat sink, running 10 double heat sinks against the Prime's 11. It keeps the same low, hard-to-target silhouette, and Assault Tech Industries builds it, with production also spread across several other sites.
