The C809 Falchion-Class Interceptor was a single pilot heavy interceptor introduced to the United Nations Space Command Defence Force in 2578.

Introduction
The Falchion first came into conception after the Terran-Covenant War, where the UNSCDF needed a faster, more dangerous vessel to combat the numerous hordes of disposable Seraph fighters they had encountered when invading the Remnant Expanse during Operation:OVERLORD. While the Longsword was a first choice for many pilots, the destruction of one meant the death of two pilots and two less veteran pilot able to take it up with the Seraph waves.

Therefore UNSC designers came up with the Falchion, the UNSC answer to the Seraph fighter. The idea behind it was simple - one pilot in control of a faster, more powerful interceptor able to destroy a Seraph with a vast array of new weaponry. Before long the Falchion was mass produced and delivered to UNSN Fleets. Over time the Falchion diversified from its interceptor role and took on newer roles with few modifications to its systems.

Usage
Falchion Interceptors are deployed regularly to counter and destroy Seraph fighter hordes using their speed and heavy weaponry. They are also used to escort Longsword Heavy Bombers, perform long-range reconnaissance and later after modifications become a torpedo-bomber using anti-matter warheads.

Internal Layout
The Falchion is a single pilot vessel whose cockpit is situated on the front of an overpowered plasma fusion core.
