Recognition notes
The Vindicator VND-3L is a 45-ton brawler that cruises at 43 km/h and tops out near 65, sluggish for its weight, with a jump capability of 120 metres. An ER PPC sits in the right arm, backed by an LRM 5 in the left torso and a Medium Pulse Laser mounted in the head, and 15 double heat sinks handle the load these weapons generate. CASE lines the right torso, and the chassis carries a rugged, field-serviceable frame. Ceres Metals Industries builds the type at its Capella works.
