I know the catapults have a lot of nicknames, i.e. the 6x SRM cat is called a splattercat. I've seen the assault version wreak havok, the 4x SRM 6x ML build. Is there a clever nickname for it?

On the subject, I'm not sure why a lot of people seem to prefer the 5M over the 3F for this build.
Sure, you get an extra missile hardpoint.... which is a NARC tube, and has the side effect of shooting all 6 SRM Missiles out in a straight line you can practically snipe with... but you lose Medium Lasers, and you can't fit in as many DHS.
Not to mention you have to deal with the absolute crap torso twist range of the 5M.
The 3F has a much better torso twist range, and you can fit in 6 MLAS and 4 SRM6s with 7 tons of ammo and 22 DHS.
I really want to try this build someday, but I'm thinking of changing to Artemis SRM4s. Better on heat, better ammo consumption, shoots faster and best of all is MUCH more accurate.
Either way, not a slot or ton wasted on the 3F. I like it.

Wait, torso twist varies by model and not just by chassis? Is that true? I swear I've never noticed that...

Yes it can vary.
Stalker 3f Twist is 85 degrees while the other models have only 60.
