The '''Falcon''' [[Grav-tank]] is a versatile vehicle used by the [[Eldar]] both as a transport and main battle tank. Its name is a rough translation of ''Faolchu'', who in Eldar mythology was the consort of the Great Hawk and during the [[War in Heaven (Eldar)|War in Heaven]] retrieved the sword [[Anaris]] from [[Vaul]], thereby enabling [[Eldanesh]] to continue his combat with [[Khaine]]. This principle of delivering the sword is represented in the Falcon's design, taking the fight to the enemy and retrieving beleaguered troops if the combat becomes too fierce.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3a}}
