Description
Instantly recognizable by the forward swept wing design, the Stingray is a prized fighter in the Inner Sphere. An experimental fighter just before the fall of the Star League, the Stingray is found among House Steiner and House Marik forces, although every Successor State has a few of the nimble fighters in inventory. Noted for maneuverability and stability, the Stingray is not fast but is deadly with it's heavy armament.
Armament
A Hellion-b II Medium Laser and Hellion-a III Large Laser fill out each wing, while the massive Sunspot PPC is mounted in the nose. This gives the Stingray great long range firepower, the PPC perfect for attacking grounded DropShips or armor. BV (1.0) = 1065
Variants
-90S House Steiner variant that replaces the PPC and one heat sink with an Autocannon/5. This was an attempt to stop the craft's nose heavy tendencies, but the autocannon only increased the stresses on the airframe.
