Shadow Hawk SHD-4H

The SHD-4H rebuilds the Shadow Hawk as a 55-ton sniper fighting at long range, a 3097 successor to the 2467 SHD-1R, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86, up from the original's 43 and 65, with a jump range of 150 metres against the SHD-1R's 90. In place of the Medium Laser it carries a Light PPC in the right arm, and the AC/5 in the left torso gives way to a Heavy PPC. A heavier 275 fusion engine drives the added tonnage, and standard armor plating replaces the SHD-1R's primitive covering, while the heat-sink fit grows to 12 double sinks from the original's 10 single units. Both arms still carry reinforced battle fists on a rugged, field-serviceable frame. Nimakachi Fusion Products Limited builds it at Lesnovo.
