Description

The 3G Stinger is the only mainstream variant of the Stinger to achieve any sort of popularity. First debuting in 2581, it traded the two machine guns and ammo for a second medium laser mounted on the left arm and more armor. While this variant increased the Stinger's lethality against other 'Mechs, it also made heat management a little more complicated for less experienced MechWarriors.

Description

The Royal Stinger introduced in 2720 used a XL Engine and Endo Steel chassis, to be able to mount a battery of three medium lasers and one Small Laser. The heat-sinks were upgraded to Double Heat Sinks and the speed and jumping distance of the 'Mech were also been improved slightly.

Description

The Stinger was a light BattleMech built in 2479 as a direct competitor to the Wasp. The second-ever mass-produced recon 'Mech, the Stinger was put into service alongside the Wasp due both to the Terran Hegemony's needs for scouts and to the similarities in their design. In fact the two were so similar that General Mechanics filed suit against Earthwerks for copyright infringement. After twenty years of back-and-forth legal actions, during which Stinger production continued unabated, GM eventually dropped the matter due to the rising costs of pursuing the lawsuit. The Stinger would go on to become the second-most produced 'Mech in the Inner Sphere after the Wasp.

Description

A radical update of the venerable Stinger, the Stinger-4G departs from the mech's usual profile of being a jump-capable laser carrying scout. Designed by a mercenary tech with a dream, the -4G carries a pair of Streak SRM-4 launchers, one in each side torso, with a ton of ammo. In the already-cramped head sits an ER Small Laser. To include all this firepower, the mech uses a XL Engine and loses all of its famous jump jets. The -4G is well armored though, carrying as much as the frame can hold.

Description

This upgraded version of the Stinger produced by Earthworks Incorporated took advantage of several technologies that were rediscovered, thanks in part to the Helm Memory Core. The chassis was upgraded to a Endo Steel model, allowing it to carry an additional half-ton of armor. The 'Mech retained the medium laser but swapped the machine guns for an Anti-Missile System on its right arm and a Flamer on its left. One ton of AMS ammo was carried in the right torso while the movement profile remains the same as the base -3R.
