Valkyrie Class Attack Fighter
These specifications have not been finalized and therefore do not yet 'exist' in the Federation Space universe. -Gen. Bartlett - Commandant, SFMC
The F/A-3 "Corsair" is a fighter-class starship, designed to fit a more diverse mission profile than its predecessors, the F-1 “Raptor” and the A-1 “Raider”. Conceived in concept by the Star Fleet Marine Corps, it was decided by new Commandant General Jack Bartlett (formerly of Marine Special Operations) to approach the Dhar'hyyk Defence Force to procure cost-effective and combat-tested spacecraft. The craft offered was a modification of the older but still capable Valkyrie, enlarged and modernised to better fulfil the requirements of the project.
Since the project began, it attracted the attention of Star Fleet Tactical Command, who are also currently assessing the viability of a single multi-role attack fighter to replace the A-1, F-1 and EW-2.
Currently only the prototype F/A-3 exists, and was first tested by Lieutenant Commanders Jennifer Braggins and [[Crystillin, Acenvar|Acenvar Crystillin] in mid-2417.
