The '''Falcon''' was a fighter aircraft planned to be in [[Halo Wars]], used by the UNSC Army. Originally intended to be a usable unit, stored in the [[UNSC Airpad]], it filled the role of strike fighter, packing enough firepower to destroy enemy vehicles and infantry with "Sidewinder" missiles and heavy armor-piercing guns. Like several other units, it was cut from the final game before it shipped.<ref>http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=152206&page=2</ref>

In terms of design, the Falcon uses forward-swept wings, giving it an appearance similar to the 20th Century [[Wikipedia:Sukhoi Su-47|Sukhoi Su-47]]. It also possesses two inward-angled vertical stabilisers, and missile pods attached to the base of the wing and the ventral hull. At the rear of the craft are a pair of tilting jet thrusters, presumably allowing [[VTOL]] capability.
