Star Falcon (スターファルコン,   Sutā Farukon) is an aerial vehicle used by G-Force that first appeared in Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla. It forms the lower half of MOGUERA.

History

Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla

Akira Yuki called for the separation of MOGUERA's two segments in order to attack SpaceGodzilla with a new plan. He took Star Falcon, as his crew mates took the Land Moguera. Yuki fired Star Falcon's lasers at SpaceGodzilla, and he felt the full force of the monster's corona beam counteroffensive. Star Falcon continued to fire its lasers and, again, was hit by the corona beam. However, Yuki's efforts allowed Star Falcon to distract SpaceGodzilla long enough for Land Moguera and Godzilla to destroy Fukuoka Tower, which SpaceGodzilla's energy supply depended upon. The super attack jet continued to fire upon SpaceGodzilla, as it prepared to merge with Land Moguera once again.

Trivia

• In the script for Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla, Star Falcon was known as Garuda II (ガルーダＩＩ,   Garūda Tsū).
• Its ability to fly in the vacuum of space would make the Star Falcon a spaceplane. Because of its nature as a fighter craft, it could be called a star fighter or space fighter.
• Synthetic Diamond was also used for the Super X2's Fire Mirror, the armor of the Heisei Heisei Mechagodzilla, Garuda, MOGUERA, the Land Moguera counterpart and Kiryu's Absolute Zero Cannon.
  • Outside of the Heisei era, the Star Falcon would be another in a long line of characters throughout the daikaiju genre to use crystals in its power set, along with the aforementioned examples would include Barugon, and the Showa King Caesar.
• The Star Falcon's Dual Plasma Laser Cannons appear to work as pulsed lasers, as they fire out laser bolts in a cycle instead of two continues streams, much like Moguera and MOGUERA. This would allow damage or destruction of a specific spot on a target by rapidly heating it in a short time and vaporizing layers that spot before the rest of the target's body can gradually absorb the heat like with a continuous laser stream. The concept of a pulse laser would be revisited again for the GX-813 Griffon in Godzilla vs. Megaguirus.
• The Plasma Laser Cannons are implied by their name to be combination energy weapons. While lasers and plasma are different, being energy and a state of matter (amplified light and ionized-gas, respectively), lasers can reach temperatures hot enough to turn gas into plasma, either when coming in contact with the air or heating up stored gases, such as hydrogen, in the weapon itself and releasing it when fired. The same would apply to the Plasma Laser Cannons in MOGUERA's eyes. Similarly, the Karyu, Rumbling, and Eclair in Godzilla: Final Wars are all equipped with combination energy weapons in the form of Miniature Plasma Maser Beam Cannons.
  • Some sources list the Star Falcon's weapons as Dual Maser Vulcan Cannons instead of lasers. Although similar, masers are different to laser though both are capable of generating enough heat to create plasma and both can be fired pulse cyclic rates. This is likely a combination of translation error and masers being lesser known than lasers.
  • In theory a weapon could be made to fire both maser and laser beams and generate enough heat to create plasma, making it a combination weapon of three different types of directed-energy weapons.
