Recognition notes
The Vulture (Mad Dog) V is a 60-ton missile boat fighting at long range, cruising at 54 km/h and topping out near 86. Where the Prime mounts a Large Pulse Laser and a Medium Pulse Laser in each arm, this configuration carries an ER Medium Laser alongside the Medium Pulse Laser in each arm. In place of the Prime's second LRM 20 in the right torso, it fields an Arrow IV, with a single LRM 20 remaining in the left torso. An extra double heat sink brings the total to 13, and the type is built by Bergan Industries at Alshain among its several other production sites.
