The Paladin is the result of years of painstaking research and development in the weapons labs of Sunderland Research Station. Utilising many of the technologies that make the Templar and Hussar essential Bretonian assets, the Paladin attempts to find a happy middle-ground between these two prestigious ships. Boasting a revolutionary combination of agility and firepower, the Paladin has found favour among the BAF's skirmishers and scouts who need to strike fast and hit harder.

Having first seen heavy action in the Bretonian-Kusari war, veteran Paladin fighter pilots often find themselves the better asset to counter the agile Gallic fightercraft then their Templar counterparts.
