GTF Angel (non-canon)


Canonicity

While the GTF Angel as a named fighter is canon, all statistics and models shown are not. What is known to be canon is shown here.

FS1 Reference

The GTF Angel Scout Fighter was a scout fighter predating the Great War. The GTF Angel Scout Fighter was later used as a template when developing the GTF Valkyrie.

GTF Valkyrie description

Using the old GTF Angel Scout Fighter as a template, the GTA created the Valkyrie Interceptor Fighter. It has two additional engines, as well as an additional set of primary hardpoints. This makes the Valkyrie the best bomber interceptor in the fleet. Its speed is unmatched in the GTA, and its maneuverability is above average. Its only drawbacks are a small secondary payload and weak hull.

Aside from the fact that the Angel had two engines and two guns in contrast to the Valkyrie's four, no data is known about the specifications of the ship.

Upgrades to the Apollo have made the Angel largely obsolete, and the original design has since been retired in favor of its successor, the GTF Valkyrie.
