Additional Facts

 * The Stinger was introduced to the Event Shop during  the Special Event Operation: Hellstorm.
 * Stingers are usually, but not always, found on Base Defense in Bunkers, Strongholds and Watchtowers where their Range is dramatically increased.
 * Until the introduction of the Drone Silo & Valkyrie the Stinger's only use on an Attack of a Enemy Base was to counter the Hellfire Turret.
 * Starting from Level 6,  if placed in Bunker or Stronghold the Stinger can out range a Level 10 Hellstorm.
 * Starting from Level 3, if placed in a Watchtower the Stinger can out range a Level 10 Hellstorm.
 * In base defense, Stingers are almost worthless if they are not placed in a Bunker/Stronghold/Watchtower because of their reduced range and vulnerability. Their only real use in this situation is to fight off Hellfire missiles targeting your turrets.
 * When striking a target the Stinger produces a Splash or Flak effect that can damage other targets near by.
 * Hellfire and Hellstorms should avoid grouping all their missiles together when Attacking a Stinger ( in or out of Bunkers ) to avoid having mutiple missiles destroyed by 1 Stinger shot.
 * The Event Shop offered the Stinger at a reduced cost of only 4,750 xp during Operation: Deadpoint2.
 * Stinger or Flak Tank? Here are thoughts on it.
