Production

Structure	Input(s)	Output	Time
Small Assembly Station	5 x Construction Materials 2 MW of power 1 x   03MM “Caster”	00MS “Stinger”	00:03:00

Storage & Transport

The 00MS “Stinger” can be stored in a Storage Depot, Seaport or Storage Ship.

It can be packaged into a medium Shippable and transported by any Shipping Vehicle (Crane, Flatbed Truck, Barge, Freighter, Storage Ship, Landing Ships, Flatbed Car, or Large Crane).

Tactics

The 00MS “Stinger” is a great tool to scout the enemy's positions and attack the enemy's supply convoys due to its high speed. It can quickly travel across the map, shooting any enemies it may encounter.

Extended gunfights are not recommended as the vehicle offers zero protection to both crew members and the vehicle itself is very fragile and not cheap to repair.

Ideal Ammunition Loadout
Although the vehicle can hold up to 100 ammo, it's highly recommended to bring much fewer than that (between 20 to 60) due to oversupplying (any engagement will use far less than 100 ammo). If the vehicle runs out, they can salvage from the enemy, or resupply at a nearby base. This prevents the enemy from benefiting from your destruction by looting the destroyed vehicle, and gaining additional ammo.
