    The Avenger Pedestal Mounted Stinger system is a lightweight, mobile and transportable surface-to-air missile and gun weapon system, mounted on a High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV).

    The Avenger, manufactured by Boeing in Huntsville, is a shoot-on-the-move, totally automated, day-and-night capable short-range air defense system. A key element of the Army’s Forward Area Air Defense System, Avenger was deployed during Operation Desert Storm and is currently deployed in the Balkans.

    Must not forget the GAU-8 Avenger Cannon! It's the gun carried by the A-10 Thunderbolt II(Warthog) and is the basis of the Dutch built Goalkeeper Close In Weapon System.
