Transport Shuttle |
The Valiant is one of the few specially built space crafts created by S.N.A.I.L. for use with the U.S.S.F. This is a heavy armored cargo ship that also doubles as a troop transporter. It is capable of entering and exiting the Earth gravity to load and unload troops. It has a good amount of armor, as well as a compatible defence system. Its normal mission would be to drop troops off near an area, lay down a volley of suppressing fire, and then exit, returning later to pick back up her troops.

** If you deplete the main body, this will destroy/cripple the craft.
*** If you deplete all the engines will cripple the craft, leaving it with no power for life support, weapons, or any kind of movement.

Speed:
Flight: The Falcon can fly at a speed of 720 mph (Mach 1.1) in an atmosphere and Earth like gravity. But can go vertical, and propel itself out of Earth's Gravity.
Space Flight: In zero gravity the Valiant has fair maneuverability and speed, moving as fast as 1485 mph (Mach 2.3).
Repulserlift System: The Valiant can also hover at a max distance of 120 feet above the ground when using only its repulserlifts. It can also move forward at about 160 mph when only using the repulserlifts.
