Recognition notes
The VL-2T (Timms) is a 40-ton scout fighting in close, a 3034 field refit of the 2777 original. Where the base VL-2T carries a Machine Gun in the left arm, this configuration mounts a Flamer there, and a second Flamer joins the left torso alongside a Small Laser in place of the base's Medium Laser. The Flamer in the right arm and the AC/2 in the right torso carry over from the original. It cruises at 65 km/h and tops out near 97, with a 180-metre jump capability, and keeps the low, hard-to-target silhouette of the base design. As a field refit it is assembled at various sites rather than a single dedicated factory.
