Recognition Notes
The Tomahawk THK-53 is a 45-ton fighter flown as a fast dogfighter, replacing the THK-33's small laser in the nose and its large laser in each wing with three medium lasers in the right wing and three medium lasers in the left wing. The fusion engine carries over, but ferro-aluminum armor takes the place of the THK-33's standard plate. Sixteen double heat sinks cool the type, well above the THK-33's ten single heat sinks. Wangker AeroSpace builds it at Mars.
