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 Stinger STG-3P is a 3060s variant of the Stinger that upgrades it with modern technology. Using an Endo-Steel structure permits the -3P to replace all the Stinger's weaponry with a Light PPC located in the right torso's shoulder. The -3P retains the standard Stinger movement profile and armor, ensuring the -3P's popularity with pilots.

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.

Description

The 5R variant was created by the Taurian Concordat with assistance from Word of Blake. This upgrade of the Stinger used three tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor and carried a ER Medium Laser in the right arm and two Rocket Launcher 15s split between the side torsos. The chassis and electronics remained unchanged so that refits of existing Stingers could be carried out in a matter of months.

Description

Capable of engaging an enemy at any range, the Periphery-manufactured 5T variant of the Stinger introduced in the 3060s was armed with two MML-3 launchers, which were capable of firing both LRM and SRM ammunition, making the 5T extremely flexible. Appearing in Taurian and Magistracy units, the 5T was powered by an XL engine and was clad in three tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor.

Description

In addition to the maximized Stealth Armor, the -6L carries a pair of Medium Lasers, while the ground speed was increased to 130 KPH by dropping the Jump Jets. Produced on Ares, Sian and Detroit, the -6L is solely in the hands of the Capellan Confederation and the Magistracy Of Canopus.

Description

Intended to operate at a longer range than most other Stinger variants, House Steiner began manufacturing the 6S in the 3060s. It used a Light Fusion Engine to push the 'Mech up to speeds of 118.8 km/h and was capable of reaching speeds of 151.2 km/h through the use of a MASC system. The 'Mech could also jump up to two hundred and ten meters. An additional weight saving measure on this variant was the use of a Small Cockpit. The 'Mech was armed with two Light Machine Guns for anti-infantry and crowd control use. To defend itself against 'Mechs and vehicles, the 6S had a single ER Medium Laser.

Description

Named after a famous athlete from Old Terra history, the Muhammad does as that old athlete did: float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. The Stinger Muhammad comes with the same principle and hits extremely hard thanks to its right arm mounted Bombast Laser. To make room for the massive weapon, the Muhammad uses an XXL Engine, an XL Gyro, and Clan-grade Endo-Steel, though the double heat sinks are Inner Sphere-spec to save on costs as the mech is already fantastically expensive. Still, with one good shot from the Bombast, it can bash anything into pieces.

An ER Medium and a Small Pulse Laser provide primary firepower while twin Machine Guns with half a ton of ammo deal with infantry forces as necessary.
