Recognition notes
The Rapier RPR-100b is an 85-ton fighter flown as a dogfighter, its nose still built around the autocannon/20 the base model carries but with the paired PPCs replaced by two large pulse lasers. The LRM 10 in the nose grows to an LRM 20, now guided by an Artemis IV FCS also mounted in the nose, and a medium pulse laser covers the aft arc where the base model carries nothing. The fuselage adds CASE, and an XL engine replaces the Fusion plant of the base model. Heat sink count rises from 12 to 15 double heat sinks, and the fighter carries standard armor. Bauer Enterprises builds it at Tharkad.
