They united in their efforts to create a joint company known as Valiant Vehicles, with the Striker being their first product.<ref name=TR3039p52f/> The low-cost light fire support tank became a mainstay of the [[AFFS]] after its introduction in the first decade of the [[thirty-first century]], and orders for the Striker soon outstripped the Valiant production line's capacity.<ref name=TR3039p52f/> The Striker, refitted with Star League technology, first returned in the 3040s when Valiant was able to catch up with production demands for its tank. The Striker was later produced for the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Commonwealth]] during its relatively brief existence, and was therefore spread to the [[Lyran Alliance]]. Limited production runs of the vehicle were later delivered to the [[Draconis Combine]] in exchange for new technology to be added to the Striker.<ref name=TR3039p52f/> ==Weapons and Equipment== The tank's primary weapon is its [[Valiant Heavy Crossbow]] [[LRM-10|10-tube Long Range Missile launcher]], which is limited to 12 shots. For close range combat, the tank is fitted with a [[Valiant Pilum]] [[SRM-6|6-tube Short Range Missile Launcher]], with 30 rounds. Both launchers are found in the Striker's turret.<ref name=TR3039p52f/> ==Variants== *; SRM : Retaining its LRM launcher, the [[3011]] tank was rearmed with four [[SRM-2|SRM-2 Launchers]]. The vehicle has 1 ton of LRM ammunition for the LRM-10 and 1 ton of SRM ammunition for the four SRM-2 systems. BV (2.0) = 583 *; LRM : All weaponry is replaced in this [[3022]] model by a single [[LRM-15|LRM-15 Launcher]] with 4 tons of ammunition. BV (1.0) = 383;<ref name=COp120/> BV (2.0) = 605 *; 3053/3058 Upgrade : The Striker received a major refit during the 3040s, where its Internal Combustion Engine was replaced with a [[fusion engine]]. Several tons of [[ferro-fibrous armor]] replaced the original's standard armor. The vehicle's LRM launcher was upgraded to an [[LRM-15]], and further enhanced with an [[Artemis IV FCS|Artemis IV fire control system]]. The original, larger SRM launcher is exchanged for a pair of [[Streak SRM-2|Streak SRM-2 launcher]]s, both of which are limited to a single ton of ammunition. BV (1.0) = 449;<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 95</ref> BV (2.0) = 691<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 80</ref> *; NARC : A variant of the "3053" Striker, the vehicle is fitted with the Striker's original LRM-10 and SRM-6. However, it's also equipped with a [[Narc Missile Beacon]]. BV (1.0) = 356;<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 97</ref> BV (2.0) = 621<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 84</ref> *; C3/3061 Upgrade : A Draconis Combine version of the "3053" Striker. The SRM launchers and their ammunition are dropped for a single turret-mounted [[ER Medium Laser]], the LRM-15's ammunition is brought up to 16 rounds, and the tank is also given a [[Guardian ECM Suite]] and a [[C3 slave computer]]. BV (1.0) = 525;<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 96</ref> BV (2.0) = 775<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 81</ref> *; Laser : This [[3062]] version is a field modification to the C3 variant of the Striker. This variant is found in the [[Draconis March]], where it drops its C3 Slave Computer. The vehicle was given an additional ER medium laser, and the LRM ammunition was brought up to 16 rounds. BV (1.0) = 610;<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Upgrades'', p. 96</ref> BV (2.0) = 860<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 83</ref> *; Ammo : Based on the 3053/3058 version, this [[3054]] variant increases the LRM ammunition storage bay capacity by 100% by dropping the Artemis IV guidance system. It also adds a half-ton of armor protection. BV (2.0) = 701<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 82</ref> *; Sealed : Similar to the "Wet Striker", this variant uses a [[Environmental Sealing|sealed hull]] and [[fuel cell]] engine. The weapons have been replaced by a pair of [[MML-5]] launchers with 3 tons of ammo and a [[Guardian ECM Suite]] to disrupt enemy electronics. A [[Light Machine Gun]] counters enemy infantry.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 191</ref> BV (2.0) = 590<ref>''Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged — Old is the New New'', p. 33</ref> *; Stealth : Responding to an [[AFFS]] request for a new Striker with more survivability, Valiant System introduced the Stealth variant in the [[Dark Ages]]. Two [[MML-5]] and one [[SRM-6]] launcher with two tons of ammo per launcher type are protected by [[Vehicular Stealth]] armor and a [[Guardian ECM suite]]. A [[light engine]] drives it to 86.4 km/h. BV (2.0) = 684<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 33'', p. 31</ref> ===Custom Variants=== *; "Wet Striker" : The "Wet Striker" light tank was designed and built by two former [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] mechanics for a group of pirates. After trading the standard ICE engine for fuel cell engines pulled from IndustrialMechs and [[Environmental Sealing|sealing the tank hull]] for amphibious operations, they had four light tanks that could perform amphibious landings. They then replaced the standard LRM launcher with four [[Rocket Launcher 10]]s in a secondary turret to provide an overwhelming quick strike capability. The extra space left behind by these modifications was converted into a cargo bay that could be stocked with stolen goods. One of the tanks was captured during their first raid, which allowed the AFFS to list the modifications discussed here.
