Description[]
Infocard Entry[]
As the name attests, this ship is formidable and is well-deserving of the reputation that it enjoys. With a balanced combination of refined offensive and defensive technologies, the Falcon delivers an astonishing amount of potential firepower to potential adversaries quickly and efficiently.
Comments[]
The Falcon is tied with the Bounty Hunter AP-7031 Barracuda Heavy Fighter for being the most maneuverable Heavy Fighter in the game, with a turn rate of 1.34. The Falcon also has the most cargo space of any Heavy Fighter, at 60 units.
The nearest comparable ship to the Falcon is the Rheinland 90-ARKM-N9 Valkyrie Heavy Fighter, which is $55,000 cheaper, is available for purchase 2 levels lower, and can equip the same weapons with the same configuration, but has less shield battery/nanobot and cargo capacity, a weaker hull, and a smaller powerplant.
The Bounty Hunter AP-8050 Hammerhead Very Heavy Fighter is the next logical step up from the Falcon. The Civilian CTE-6000 Eagle Very Heavy Fighter is the Very Heavy Fighter variant.
