Recognition notes
The Rakshasa MDG-1Ar is a 75-ton heavy that fights at stand-off range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86, unchanged from the 3055 original it reworks. In place of the pair of ER Large Lasers the arms now carry a Snub-Nose PPC each, still paired with a Medium Laser per arm, and the LRM 10 racks in each torso give way to an MML 7 in the Left Torso and an MML 7 in the Right Torso. The Medium Pulse Laser and the twin Artemis IV fire-control systems are gone, and CASE now lines the Left Torso in their place. Standard armor covers the frame where the MDG-1A wore ferro-fibrous plating, and the design keeps its easily-serviced layout and fragile head. As a field refit it carries no fixed manufacturer, being reworked at various sites rather than built new.
