Recognition notes
The Scorpion Light Tank (Hardened) is a 25-ton tracked combat vehicle built as a brawler, cruising at 43 km/h with a top speed near 65. Where the base model mounts a Machine Gun and an Autocannon/5 together in the turret, this variant strips the turret down to bare mount and moves the Machine Gun forward to the hull front, leaving the turret's armament diminished to nothing. The hull carries CASE, and the fuel cell engine replaces the original's ICE powerplant. Its armor is Hardened plate in place of the Standard protection on the base machine. Aldis Industries builds this variant at Betelgeuse.
