Great Fox has four wings to stabilize it during flight, much like an Arwing, and it is equipped with two giant laser cannons. Despite being a massive spacecraft, the Great Fox is capable of quick travel. At the bottom of the Great Fox is a hatch where the Arwings are deployed.

It has been requested that this article be rewritten. Reason: add more info in general

This article is about the large aircraft present in most Star Fox games. For its replacement vehicle in Star Fox Command, see Great Fox (Star Fox Command).

The Great Fox is a large aircraft carrier featured in the Star Fox series. It serves as the main headquarters for Fox and the Star Fox team while they travel around the Lylat System. Because of its massive size, the Great Fox can store smaller vehicles within it, most often Arwings, and serves as a carrier and a repair facility in between missions. ROB 64 oversees the operation of the Great Fox, especially while Star Fox is on a mission. The Great Fox first appears in Star Fox 64.

Great Fox has four wings to stabilize it during flight, much like an Arwing, and it is equipped with two giant laser cannons. Despite being a massive spacecraft, the Great Fox is capable of quick travel. At the bottom of it is a hatch where the Arwings are deployed.

History

Star Fox series

In Star Fox 64, on the planet Aquas, the Great Fox is shown to have the ability to float on water and have its lower front hangar under the water. At the start of the mission, the Great Fox deploys the Blue-Marine from the hangar.

In Star Fox Adventures, the Great Fox has a smaller role, as it mainly just appears in the opening and ending cutscenes. The Great Fox is shown to be in a state of repair. The command bridge is used mostly for the Star Fox crew to lounge around, with only a small part being dedicated to operating the Great Fox.

In Star Fox: Assault, the Great Fox has a different appearance than in Star Fox 64 and Star Fox Adventures. It was made to resemble a frigate, with its body being more pointed and its head being elongated. The command bridge is used specifically for mission briefings, and is not used for leisure like in Star Fox Adventures.

In Star Fox Command, following the destruction of the original Great Fox, it is replaced with a ship of the same name.

Super Smash Bros. series

In the Super Smash Bros. series, several of the Star Fox-themed stages take place on the Great Fox traveling through an area.

In Super Smash Bros., the stage Sector Z involves the Great Fox traveling through the area of the same name.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, the two Star Fox stages are Corneria and Venom, which feature the fighters fighting on the Great Fox as it travels through Corneria and Venom respectively. There is also a trophy of the Great Fox, which incorrectly lists its debut appearance as Star Fox instead of Star Fox 64.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, although Lylat Cruise takes place on Pleiades, the Great Fox can be seen in the stage's background. There are two trophies of the Great Fox, one of them using its Star Fox 64 design and the other using its Star Fox: Assault design.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Orbital Gate Assault takes place on the Great Fox, which is designed after its Star Fox: Assault appearance instead of its Star Fox 64 design since the stage itself is based on Star Fox: Assault.
