- Superiority of Flight: The Striking Falcon offers upgrades from predecessor models of Mandalorian jetpacks. Upgraded power and fuel cells allow extended flight duration for a time of up to four minutes of continuous burn, the burst-thrust design of the jetpack allows it to stretch out that four minutes of fuel for a much longer flight time and range.
- Modular and Resistant: The Stirking Falcon can be modified to be equipped to various armors and the size of the design can be adjusted to accomodate different species, physiques etc. and is well protected from any damage.
- Fuel Limits: While it has upgraded fuel cells that low extended flight time compared to conventional jetpacks, the Striking Falcon still has finite fuel resources and users must land and refuel after a duration of flight time.
- Size Limits: While the jetpack can be modified to an extent to accompany different species and weights of armors, it falls shorts of being able to lift things such as heavy vehicles, ships, et cetera. It also prevents a user with the jetpack from significantly slowing such massive objects in free fall or similar scenarios.
The Striking Falcon, the Jetpack, the symbol of a Mandalorian warrior come into his own.
Like their shiny metal plates of beskar, the Mandalorian Jetpack is one of their signifying pieces of technology. Although it truly has evolved in both design in function over the millennias of use various models have seen, the sense of tradition much like any other aspect of Mandalorian culture is one well observed within jetpack designs. The ENCL-JR5 Striking Falcon Jetpack is one design that is no different. Although its internal components may variate widely from those used in past designs, from the outside it resembles the traditional design of a Mandalorian Jetpack, and in doing so evokes that sense of tradition and worthiness that is associated with it.
The Striking Falcon is meant to be an overall improvement and upgraded model of jetpack, an evolution in function and design to accompany what seems to be a new era of Mandalorian civilization. Indeed many technologies achieve this goal. The jetpack is equipped with targeting systems and gyoscopic flight stabilization systems, both of which are fully capable of integration with a suit of Mandalorian Armor and the various interface technologies that a suit would use. It has a missile launcher, which can be configured to hold a wide variety of both anti-vehicle and anti-personnel projectiles. With directional thrusters that include counter-thrust programming and automated flight telemetry in addition to upgraded fuel and power cells that have increased efficiency, the jetpack can continuously burn for up to four minutes. Couple this with the three-second burst-propulsion system that the jetpack employs, and the Striking Falcon is gifted with extended flight duration and range that a user can cover.
Not only that, but the jetpack is very modular and also resistant to damage, a common and often flaw found in conventional Mandalorian jetpacks. The jetpack is built around a durable yet lightweight durasteel framework that protects the many internal components that the jetpack houses. A casing of duraplast, coated in liquid ethylene glycol and laser-reflective coating, work to protect the jetpack from external and incoming, whether it be deliberately hostile or byproducts of high-altitude flight and environmental wear-and-tear. The jetpack can also be modified to accompany a wide variety of species and various physiques; however there is a limit that the design can ultimately be pushed to, preventing it from lifting heavy objects such as conventional heavy vehicles, star ships, and more.
Altogether? The Striking Falcon will be valuable for those who are a true warrior, but the strengths of a true warrior do not lie within pieces of advanced technology --no, they lie within.
