Recognition notes
The Scorpion SCP-12S is a 55-ton skirmisher, a 3066 rebuild of the 2570 SCP-1N. Where the SCP-1N carries a PPC in the right torso, this variant fields an LB 10-X AC in the same location, alongside the SRM 6 that carries over from the original. A 330 light fusion engine replaces the standard fusion plant, and endo steel internal structure sheds weight the earlier model spent on a standard frame, with CASE added in the left torso. Cruising speed holds at 65 km/h with a top speed near 97, and double heat sinks replace the SCP-1N's single sinks. Defiance Industries builds the type at Furillo.
