The RDW-300 Stinger Fighter is one of the most unique fighter classes in the galaxy. An upgrade from the Shaman MP-11 Stinger Interceptor, the Stinger Fighter carries more firepower than an assault scout in the frame of a fighter. Because of its many weapons, Redwillow, Inc. needed to change its normal twin-engined, large-winged design to one able to withstand the weight and kick of these weapons. They found one with the concept Stinger. The Stinger, while slower than a Valkyrie Interceptor or a Loki Bomber (two other Redwillow ships), can fire more weapons than the average fighter. The downside is that none of the weapons face backward or sideways, making the Stinger have a payload that only fires forward. This ship, though, if firing all its weapons, can disable ships as large as a light cruiser with successful shots. It only requires a one-person crew, making it very cost effective. This fighter is only good against larger ships such as assault scouts, as its weapons are mostly power-based, not speed-based. It can fit in the same space that a normal fighter can.
