Stinger STG-6R

The STG-6R is a 20-ton scout that fights close in, a 3120 rework of the 2479 STG-3R built on a 160 XL fusion engine in place of the original's 120 fusion engine, lifting cruising speed from 65 to 86 km/h and top speed from 97 to 130 km/h while stretching the jump range from 180 to 240 metres. Endo steel structure replaces the standard frame, and the paired heavy machine guns in the arms replace the STG-3R's machine guns, while an ER medium laser in the right arm stands in for the earlier medium laser. Ten double heat sinks handle the upgraded loadout in place of the original's ten single sinks. It keeps the rugged, field-serviceable frame and cramped cockpit of the earlier model, and Earthwerks-FWL, Inc. builds it at Calloway VI.
