Recognition notes
The VLK-QD8 is a 30-ton missile boat that fights at long range, a 3102 rebuild of the 2787 VLK-QA original. In place of the medium laser in the right arm it carries a Light PPC, and the left torso's LRM 10 becomes an Extended LRM 10. A lighter 180 XL fusion engine and endo steel structure lift cruising speed from 54 to 65 km/h and top speed from 86 to 97, with jump range extending from 150 to 180 metres. Ten double heat sinks replace the base model's eleven single sinks, and the design carries enhanced communications gear and remains easily serviced. Corean Enterprises builds it at New Avalon.
