Recognition notes
The TBT-7MM 'Merida' is a 50-ton sniper, a 3140 refit of the 2780 TBT-3C missile boat. In place of the twin LRM 15 racks and three medium lasers, it carries an ER Medium Laser in the right arm, two Streak LRM 15 launchers split between the left and right torso, and an ISSmallVibroblade in the left arm. A 250 Inner Sphere XL fusion engine replaces the 300 XL fusion engine of the original, and cruising speed falls from 65 km/h to 54, top speed from 97 to 86. Laser-reflective armor replaces the standard plating of the TBT-3C. Corean Enterprises builds the type at Ramen II, with production also carried out at other sites.
