The Stingray, sometimes known as the Commando Stingray,[2] is a light tank produced by Textron Marine & Land Systems division (formerly Cadillac Gage). It was specifically designed to use as many existing components of other American armored fighting vehicles as possible to keep costs down. The Stingray was a private venture project aimed at foreign countries.[3] As of 2020, Textron has kept the Stingray name registered.[4]

It was exported for use by armed forces of Thailand, who remain the only user.[3]
