================================================================================================
Overview:
    A variant of the old Stalker 3F.

Capabilities:
    The main changes are in the long to medium range weapons with the removal of the Large
    Lasers for Light PPCs and an upgrade of the LRM launchers. Some pilots frown on this variant
    as it does not increase the ammo so limits the Stalkers time in ranged combat, while others
    appreciate the added range of the LPPCs which they feel gives them greater punch at range
    with the large LRMs. The recommended tactic with this variant is to hammer foe(s) at range
    until the LRMs are exhausted then close and do any finishing off with the medium lasers and
    SRMs.

Deployment:
    Currently they are no know Mechs in existance that field this weapons configuration. The
    design plans for this and other LPPC variant Mechs came to light not long after the Word of
    Blake splintered from Comstar. It would appear that Star League designers and engineers were
    doing field testing on LPPCs and equipped a number of designs.

Variants:
    Notes along with the variant suggest some engineers considered leaving the LRM 10s in place
    and using the additional tonnage for more heat sinks and armor.

Notable MechWarriors:
    There is a rumor with limited BattRon evidence that Hanse Schmidt of The Jade Company
    piloted a Stalker with such a weapons configuration during around 3015.
