Recognition notes
The Shadow Cat II 2 is a 60-ton heavy skirmisher, a 3077 rework of the 3076 original, cruising at 65 km/h and topping out at 97, with jump capability out to 240 metres against the base model's 180. In place of the HAG/20 in the right arm it carries an ER Large Pulse Laser, backed by a laser insulator in that same arm, and the ER Medium Laser in the right torso becomes an ER Medium Pulse Laser, also fitted with a laser insulator. The LRM 10 in the left torso and the LRM 10 in the right torso carry over from the original. A partial wing sits in both the left torso and right torso, and the heat-sink count rises from 10 to 11 double heat sinks. The type keeps its low, hard-to-target silhouette and its easily-serviced design, and is built by Olivetti Weaponry at Sudeten.
