Recognition notes
The Vulture (Mad Dog) Prime is a 60-ton missile boat that fights at long range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86 on its 300 XL fusion engine. Twin LRM 20 racks fill the left and right torsos for its stand-off punch, while each arm carries a Large Pulse Laser and a Medium Pulse Laser for work at closer quarters. Ferro-fibrous armor covers the frame, and 12 double heat sinks manage the machine's output. Bergan Industries builds it at the Arcadia BattleMech Plant CM-T15, among several other production sites.
