Recognition notes
The Supernova 4 is a 90-ton assault that fights close in, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54, with a 90-metre jump. Where the original Supernova of 2846 built its six ER large lasers into a long-range sniper, this rebuild refits the arms with a pair of Large Pulse Lasers and a Heavy Medium Laser on each side, and adds an ER Medium Laser in the center torso and another in the head. Endo steel structure replaces the base model's standard framework, and the heat-sink count falls from 26 to 18 double. A targeting computer sits in the right torso, and Irece Alpha builds the type at its Irece plant.
