Recognition notes
The Spad SPD-503 is a 30-ton fighter flown as a fast dogfighter. Where the SPD-502 mounts a PPC, a medium laser, and a small laser in the nose, the SPD-503 replaces that battery with a large pulse laser and two medium pulse lasers, all still in the nose. The fusion engine gives way to an XL engine, and standard armor gives way to ferro-aluminum plate. Ten double heat sinks cool the type, an improvement over the ten single heat sinks of the SPD-502. New Age Systems Inc. builds it at Terra.
