Recognition notes
The Volkh VKH-7 is a 45-ton skirmisher that fights at stand-off range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out at 86, with a supercharger in the left torso pushing it to 108 km/h when engaged. Where the VKH-1 clustered four ER medium lasers in the head and backed them with an SRM 4 in the right torso, the VKH-7 drops the SRM 4 and reduces the head battery to a single ER medium laser, adding an ER large laser alongside it in the same location. A targeting computer sits in the right torso, and a lance is mounted in each arm. It carries hardened armor over an endo steel structure, built on a 225 XXL fusion engine by Vining Engineering and Salvage Teams at its Solaris VII works.
