The AVS-98 Economy (Popularly known as the AVS-98 Economy Ingram) was a proposed second-generation patlabor built by Shinohara Heavy Industries (SHI) in the anime timeline. It was intended to compete with the AV-98 Ingram, but cost significantly less. The type was ultimately unsuccessful and would be upgraded to the AVS-98 Economy Ingram Mk.II shortly after its debut.

The AVS-98 Economy was closely based off of the AV-98 Ingram, SHI's previous model. The driving force between the Economy's design was, as its name suggests, producing an Ingram for as little cost as possible. It was believed that a lower-cost alternative to the Ingram would increase the SHI's patlabor sales. The Economy saw a series of downgrades from the Ingram, and most components were replaced with low-cost alternatives. The cockpit was dramatically overhauled, and the output of the drive systems was markedly reduced. These modifications drastically reduced the overall cost of the labor, but its capabilities were, as a whole, very limited in comparison to the Ingram.
