Description

Sting Rod II is a modernized version of the original Sting Rod, featuring a streamlined appearance and more armaments such as a circular saw blade and machine guns on the front.

This casting was retooled twice: in 2016, the casting's pivoting missiles were cast into the body and can no longer move, while in 2019 the casting was retooled for use in the id line. Modifications include the addition of a second missile on the side to allow for boosters to grab onto the casting, as well as a modified version of the machine gun housing with the machine guns recessed into the body and the housing extending backwards to part of the window.
