Description: The Valkyrie is an early Interceptor fighter, designed to launch from a planetary surface and intercept and destroy enemy fighters in defence of the planet. When released this fighter was one of the fastest available, and its heavy laser cannon was formidable, however the design was soon superceded by true starfighters such as the Naboo N-1 and the Z-95 Headhunter. After a very short time the fighter was outdated and out-classed by its competition, and sales suffered to such a degree that all production was cancelled and the remaining fighters were dumped onto the market at a bargain price. While extremely out-classed today, some Valkyries are still used by pirate groups, and by planets too poor to afford better, and although almost laughable today, many pilots report that Valkyries are a dream to fly, and maintenance records show that they are reliable and quickly repaired giving them a negligable down time.
