Recognition notes
The Raven RVN-3M is a 35-ton missile boat that fights at long range, a 3053 rebuild of the 3024 RVN-1X scout. Where the RVN-1X carried a Medium Laser in the right arm and an SRM 6 in the right torso, the 3M mounts a Narc in the left arm, a Small Pulse Laser in the right arm, an LRM 15 and a Small Laser in the right torso, and a second Small Laser in the left torso. A 210 XL fusion engine lifts cruising speed from 54 to 65 km/h and top speed from 86 to 97, while ferro-fibrous armor replaces the standard plating and the heat-sink count falls from 12 to 10 single sinks. The type keeps its minimal, weapon-pod arms without hands, and Hellespont 'Mech Works builds it at Sian.
