Recognition notes
The Puma (Adder) S is a 35-ton scout that fights close in, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out near 97. Where the Prime configuration mounts an ER PPC in each arm and a targeting computer in the right torso, this configuration fields a very different arsenal: twin medium pulse lasers and three machine guns in each arm, five more machine guns each in the left torso and right torso, and a flamer in the center torso. In place of the Prime's targeting computer, the S carries an ECM suite in the left arm and an active probe in the right arm. It shares the low, hard-to-target silhouette of the Prime configuration and is built by Assault Tech Industries among other producers.
