Recognition notes
The Thunder Hawk TDK-7Z is a 100-ton assault built as a missile boat, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out near 54 km/h. Where the TDK-7X sniper mounted a trio of Gauss rifles, this variant replaces them with three Thunderbolt 20 launchers, one each in the right arm, left torso, and right torso. Its four Medium Lasers become ER Medium Lasers, still fitted two in the left arm, one in the right arm, and one in the head. The internal structure shifts from standard to composite, and the heat-sink count moves from 10 single sinks to 11 double sinks. It remains a command 'Mech and a maintenance-intensive design, and it is built by Norse-Storm Technologies, Inc at its Loxley works.
