The terran Stinger is a six-wheeled jeep featured in StarCraft: Ghost. Its primary purpose is to grant mobility and extra firepower to terran infantry units.

In service as early as 2499,^[1] the Stinger requires a driver to operate it (usually an infantryman or ghost); a passenger can fire the pintle-mounted 35 mm HE cannon. The Stinger is very stable, and its sturdy frame is capable of crushing zerglings under its wheels.

The design leaves the occupants vulnerable, however, as they can be removed by flying mutalisks.^[2]
