==Overview:==
Although the Hetzer was potent in its assigned task of fire support, its lack
of a secondary weapon and peculiar design flaws meant that as  newer
technologies appeared it became more and more obsolete. 

With sales starting to falter, Quikscell decided to try and cut their losses.
Although they would continue to produce Hetzers, they would scale back
production. Instead, they would begin to manufacture a unit based on the
Hetzer: the Slingshot.

Instead of the AC/20, the vehicle now sports a Thumper artillery piece. As
both weapons are ballistic in nature, it took little effort on the parts of
the assigned engineers to make the necessary modifications to the chassis. As
the nature of the Thumper means that the unit is not supposed to close with
the enemy, the decision was made that the Hetzer's assorted failings (lack of
a turret, limited manueverability, etc.) would not be issues.
