Recognition notes

The Talon TLN-5V is a 35-ton striker built around a 280 XL fusion engine, cruising at 86 km/h and topping out at 130, brisk for its weight class. Its armament pairs a PPC in the right arm with a Medium Laser in the left, giving it reach beyond most light 'Mechs its size. The arms are minimal weapon pods without hands, and the frame is built rugged and field-serviceable. Eleven double heat sinks handle the PPC's output. Briden BattleMechs Unlimited builds it at Errai.
