The AD-1 Falke, an air superiority design that aimed to cover speed, armor, and armaments in one design. Though originally an air superiority design, it carries five pylons for various uses. The centerline pylon can either mount a bomb or a 1000L drop tank, while the four wing pylons often carry rockets or smaller bombs. Another thing to note is its rather large fuel tank for its small design. It carries 1500L of fuel (with an additional 300L in the wings, if needed) allowing it to fly greater distances than its contemporaries. It also has a powerful engine driving a contrarotating propeller, allowing it great speeds and marvelous handling. Notably, only five AD-1 units exist, four flown by the Coltheart Sisters, and the last is kept as a museum piece.
