The Faldari MK II is a significantly cost-reduced variant of the ML03 Faldari civilian heavy fighter. A military variant of the Faldari MK II, the ML2B Faldari, also exists. For its size, it has an astonishingly small profile which makes it very hard to hit, while packing quite a punch with its four guns. In the eyes of many pilots, this more than compensates for the lower armour protection and single gun mount reduction compared to the ML03 Faldari and make the MK II a successful and worthwhile alternative.
Several of the Tri-System's most well known pilots fly the Faldari MK II, including Norus Heggardly, Welope Luvenil and Phungid Mykofyle.
The Faldari MK II entered service before 2786.
