Lacks Husbandry, so it is not FU, infact, I would happily trade Blast Furnace for Husbandry on Paladins, since Speed is the real strength of Cavalry.
That would be the Persian War Elephant.

Interesting - I usually find that even without Husbandry I can cut off FU paladins before they flank. The Cumans are a bit tougher though. I would still rather have blast furnace given I find Paladins are usually in the thick of things
I think the war elephant is just too easy to convert + no heresy, and the halberd is too widespread of a melee counter. TKs lose to a handful of unique units and that’s about it in terms of melee
