Recognition notes
The Talon TLN-5W is a 35-ton striker that cruises at 86 km/h and tops out at 130 km/h. Where the 2670 TLN-5V mounted a PPC in the right arm, this 2760 rebuild carries an ER PPC in that same location, alongside the pair of medium lasers still fitted in the left arm. The chassis keeps its minimal, weapon-pod arms without hands and its rugged, field-serviceable frame. Blackstone BattleMechs, Ltd now builds the type alongside Briden BattleMechs Unlimited, with production split between the Inarcs and Errai lines.
