As I recall, back in the days of the LLBs and High Guard, the goal was
to keep 'small' combatants under 20 KTons, because that was one of the
breakpoints for hit chance (the next being under 75 KTons). So by that
measure it's in the low end of its size range. By another it needs to
lose some weight.
It easily passes the most important HG test though - it's big enough no
spinal weapon of its TL can get auto-crits on it.
