Recognition Notes
The RFL-2N is a 2556 rework of the 2504 RFL-1N, shifting the Rifleman from a brawler into a 50-ton sniper that fights at long range. In place of the Large Laser in each arm it carries a PPC, while the Medium Laser in each arm carries over; a Medium Laser is also added in the left torso and another in the right torso. A lighter 200 fusion engine replaces the 240 unit without changing the cruising speed of 43 km/h or the top speed of 65 km/h. Standard armor replaces the primitive plating of the original, and the heat-sink count rises from 12 to 16 single sinks. The type keeps its anti-aircraft fire control, fixed searchlight, and enhanced communications gear, and is built by Kallon Weapon Industries.
