SOE has just introduced the Valkyrie to PlanetSide 2. SOE says that this is the "first new vehicle to enter the skies of Auraxis" since 2013.

Packed with a front-facing turret for up-close-and-personal air support, the Valkyrie is a fast-attack gunship that serves as a nimble transport for up to six soldiers (pilot, forward gunner and four rumble seat passengers). Whether it is flying over the dense swamplands of Hossin or through the narrow canyons of Indar, this fast-moving versatile aircraft is sure to change the war on Auraxis.

The update is free and can be downloaded right now through the PlanetSide 2 launcher, which is also free.
