================================================================================================
Overview:
    The AGS-4ST variant was an attempt by GM to revitalize the Argus with a new role on the
    battlefield as a stealth capable sniper. The profile of the 'Mech remained largely the same,
    allowing GM engineers to overhaul the weapons systems with only minor modifications from the
    base 4D variant. In place of the standard RAC/5 and LRM10, a Gauss Rifle and a pair of
    single-use long range smoke canisters were paired with the Argus' existing Targeting
    Computer. Although it carries 17% less armor protection than its base variant, designers are
    quick to highlight the Stealth Armor system's ability to more than make up for this
    shortcoming.
