Recognition notes

The Shockwave SKW-6H is a 50-ton medium built around a 250 XL fusion engine, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86, the same profile as the SKW-2F it descends from. Where the SKW-2F carries a Rotary AC/5 in the right torso, this variant fields an Ultra AC/10 in that location alongside the LRM 10, and the ER Large Laser in the left torso carries over unchanged. In place of the Artemis IV fire-control system fitted to the earlier model's right torso, CASE lines the left torso here, and the heat-sink count drops from 11 to 10 double sinks. Both arms still carry reinforced battle fists, and the type is noted as an easily-serviced design. Earthwerks-FWL, Inc. builds it at Keystone.
