According to a Hollywood Reporter news item, the growing popularity of The Falcon series led to rushing the film into production. The previous film in the series, The Falcon Strikes Back was filmed from January 19 to early February 1943.

To conserve costs, the main entrance and several buildings on the studio lot were camouflaged to look like the factory owned by Stanley Harris Palmer (Clarence Kolb) and an airport. In one cutaway outside the factory, the word "Studio" can be seen written on the side of a building.
