The Pilgrimsfalk I ("Peregrine Falcon") is a twin-engine, variable-sweep wing multirole combat aircraft. The vehicle was designed to act as the primary multirole fighter aircraft of the RTAF, replacing the outdated Sparvhok ("sparrowhawk"). The Pilgrimsfalk is capable of air-superiority, interceptor, and air-to-surface operations in any weather condition. The aircraft is expected to remain in service until 2025, when it will be fully replaced by the Pilgrimsfalk II.


Development and History

In the late 80's and early 90's, after several years conducting training excercises with the much more advanced Luftstreitkräfte, officers of the Royal Talvistovan Air Force realized that the current fighter, the Sparvhok, was woefully outdated compared to the other air forces of Sunalaya. In responses a design contest was held to field options of aircraft to replaced the sparvhok in the role of the RTAF's primary multirole fighter.

Of the 3 finalists chosen, the National Aeronautics' X-702 won out, due to the projected cost and bankruptcy of the 2 other design firms that made the finals.

After continued testing, the X-702, eventually renamed to the Pilgrimsfalk, had it's first flight in 1986, and then entered service in 1993.
