 ADF-01A Falken 

The ADF-01A Falken is a multirole superplane manufactured by Grunder Industries (now General Resource Ltd.) with advanced avionics and airframe design.

Description
The Falken's first(and shocking) appearence occured during the Usean Rebellion(1998). It's most prominate feature(other than forward-swept wings) is what seems to be an armored, glassless cockpit. This is actually a visible 360° Cockpit, giving the pilot an immense advantage in combat. Instead of a traditional glass canopy, the plane utilizes the revolutionary COnnection For Flight INterface(COFFIN) system(version 1), which is similar in effect to a two-way mirror or an extremely tinted window. The pilot can still see out, but no one can see in. This is achieved via a series of monitors that read information from externally mounted cameras and display the information on a number of hexagonal screens.

The avionics and technology on the Falken are truly cutting edge; this includes forward-swept wings, canards, inward-inclined vertical stabilizers, a ventral rudder, and extended engine nacelles with 2-D thrust vectoring. These features allow for unprecedented maneuverability, giving the pilot a true edge in combat.

Armament
Gun: 1x 25-mm multi-barreled cannon Missle: AIM-9X Sidewinders that have aft targetting capabilities
