The Type 42 Peregrine is a new model VTOL gunship currently undergoing field tests by the CEF and Corp-Serf forces. Designed by Gallot Enterprises (Caprice), it is intended to replace the aging CorpSerf Hornet. Agile and swift, the Peregrine is well suited to operations in Gomorrah, though Gallot has received many complaints about the noise level of its four massive turbofans.

The two crewmembers sit in a tandem configuration, pilot in the rear seat and gunner/navigator in the front seat. An underslung free electron laser cannon provides the principal armament, though shoulder hardpoint rocket packs provide additional close-in suppressive firepower.
