Recognition notes
The Shadow Cat III C is a 45-ton striker that cruises at 65 km/h and tops out at 97, closing at the same pace as the Prime configuration. Where the Prime carries a Gauss Rifle in the left arm, this configuration mounts an LB 20-X AC in the left torso, and in place of the Medium Pulse Laser it fields an Improved Heavy Large Laser in the right arm. The shift trades the Prime's precision long-range punch for a heavier, more destructive pairing at closer engagement. It keeps the same low, hard-to-target silhouette, and Barcella Beta builds it at Irece.
