The M809A Deathstalker Self Propelled Anti Aircraft Gun (Also know as the 'Stalker', 'The Israeli' and phonetically the 'Spag') was a heavily modified Scorpion MBT modified for anti aircraft warefare. The first major refit of the Scorpion, the Deathstalker uses a Misriah 40mm autocannon in a quad set up, with a computer guidance system that can track air targets and target them without human input. The weapon, although computer controlled, can be taken off and put over to control of the driver, for use should the system malfunction or another, more darker reason. As of late, a growing trend with gunners is to use the guns as anti-infantry guns, the high explosive cluster bomb shells being potent anti infantry weapons.

| abstract
| - The M809A Deathstalker Self Propelled Anti Aircraft Gun (Also know as the 'Stalker', 'The Israeli' and phonetically the 'Spag') was a heavily modified Scorpion MBT modified for anti aircraft warefare. The first major refit of the Scorpion, the Deathstalker uses a Misriah 40mm autocannon in a quad set up, with a computer guidance system that can track air targets and target them without human input. The weapon, although computer controlled, can be taken off and put over to control of the driver, for use should the system malfunction or another, more darker reason. As of late, a growing trend with gunners is to use the guns as anti-infantry guns, the high explosive cluster bomb shells being potent anti infantry weapons. The vehicle had to undergo several major changes, with the chassis having to be lengthened by a meter and widened by a meter to accomodate the large quad gun. The gun itself is selfloading with a magazine of eight hundred rounds in a interior drum magazine. The turret houses the target acquisition millimetre wave RADAR, LIDAR, laser range finder and optical sites. The rounds are 'Smart Shots', a new round with a motion sensor implanted in the rear of the warhead. Taking up only a thin section with the actual motion sensor and detonator, should it pick something up outside of its trajectory, it detonates, sending explosive, rocket propelled flechettes and shrapnel, causing more damage than initial or potential impact. Should it be on course for impact, in explodes on contact with its target, sending flechettes through it.
