Recognition notes
The Thor Artillery Vehicle (AC) is a 55-ton wheeled combat vehicle refitted for close-in brawling, replacing the original's Thumper and fusion plant with an internal combustion engine and an Autocannon/10 on the front hull. Cruising speed drops to 43 km/h with a top speed of 65, well below the original's 54 and 86. The turret drops the twin medium lasers in favor of a pair of Rocket Launcher 20 Prototype tubes and four machine guns, and the hull's CASE installation is gone along with the ferro-fibrous plate, the crew now riding behind standard armor. Various field workshops carry out the refit rather than a single manufacturer.
