Recognition notes
The Rhino Fire Support Tank (Royal) is an 80-ton tracked combat vehicle built as a missile boat, cruising at 32 km/h with a top speed near 54. It swaps the base model's Fusion engine for an XL unit and replaces the pair of medium lasers in the turret with medium pulse lasers, adding an anti-missile system alongside them. The LRM 10 in front and the two LRM 20s in the turret carry over from the base model, with an Artemis IV FCS fitted to both the front and turret missile systems. A Guardian ECM suite sits in the hull, and the crew fights behind standard armor. Leopard Armor builds the type at Terra.
