Trivia

  • The name Kestrel was also that of a cargo ship in Halo: The Cole Protocol.
  • It was placed by modders into custom maps available only to Halo: Custom Edition.
  • The Kestrel may have been an early version of the Hornet or Hawk, as both are quite similar looking.
  • The name Kestrel was found in the Halo Combat Evolved game code.
  • The Kestrel was the name of a Osean ship in Ace Combat 5 & Zero
  • The aircraft could possible be named for the Hawker-Siddeley Kestrel FGA.1, the direct forerunner and prototype of the Hawker-Siddeley Harrier jump-jet, the only VTOL jet currently in active service.
