Falcon

"Swift and deadly aircraft. Specialized in taking down defenses."

- In-game description

Description



 * Great on defence, easily the best unit to load into a bunker apart from Colossus.
 * Their speed and flight allows them to get to an enemy quickly.
 * They can raze an entire planet in a matter of a minute.
 * Even though their weapon is a single-target weapon its rapid-fire nature allows groups of them to mow through infantry and other light units very quickly.
 * They have the longest range of any unit.
 * They attack via strafing runs on a target, which means they will fly a certain distance past the target while they slow down, turn around and then go for another pass.
 * They can easily trigger Bunkers even when attacking buildings on the very outskirts of a base, but given their speed and HP a large squad of these can still do serious damage before falling.
 * The best defence against a large squad of Falcons is a Bunker filled with more Falcons.
 * Weakness are, Missile Launchers and Colossus.
 * With massed numbers they'll tear up even the toughest defenses.
 * You will need your Star Base on Level 5 to get them.
 * Basically a flying version of a Starlinator.
