Developed in the first Global War, the OrnArbeid or Eagleworks-81 Valkyrie is a Nordenvokian made dive bomber that was one of the fastest piston engined aircraft at the end of the war topping off near 600 MPH. The Valkyrie was initially developed to push the invading Dieswen ground forces back from the capital of Nordenvok in the winter of 1942 when the nation of Dieswen launched a blitzkrieg against the once neutral nation in order to take hold of its Oil rich lands and iron laden mountians, the Aircraft was fitted with one 34MM cannon in the nose of the craft and later, near the end of the war, the tail was outfitted with a rear gunner that was equipted with a 20MM cannon to fend off against jet aircraft that had started making their debut in the war. The Valkyrie was eventually phased out of its dive bomber uses and still runs to this day as a scout/ Search and Rescue aircraft due to its short landing and take off spaces.
