The NADF Valkyrie was a Norden single-seater biplane fighter aircraft built by the OrnArbeid Aviation Company. It entered service with the Royal Flying Corps in the Summer of 1916. With pleasant flying characteristics and good manoeuvrability, the aircraft proved very successful. The Valykire was eventually outclassed by newer Iosian fighters, but it was not completely replaced on the Southern Front until the end of 1919. Remaining Valkyires were relegated to Home Defence and training units.
