Great FoxThe Great Fox is a Dreadnaught-Class Space Battleship used in the Star Fox series of video games as the mothership of the Star Fox Team. It was officially introduced in Star Fox 64 as the base of operations of the Star Fox team when in space. The ship has two large laser cannons in front to take out asteroids or any large object. A launch bay at the bottom holds the Arwings. According to the Star Fox 64 Player's guide, James McCloud placed the order to Space Dynamics to build Great Fox. The ship was not cheap. James had to take out an eighty-year loan. James was killed before the ship was completed. In Star Fox Adventures, although the Great Fox is seen, it does not play a major role in the game, and has fallen into disrepair. In , the Great Fox is re-introduced and overhauled into a sleeker-looking ship. The Great Fox is destroyed when Peppy Hare rams the ship into a shield on the Aparoid Homeworld. The idea of Star Fox having a mothership was started in Star Fox 2. The mothership, though nameless, slightly resembled Great Fox, though there are glaringly obvious differences such as the side-mounted docking bays. The ship was also featured in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee. In Super Smash Bros., the Star Fox 64 stage "Sector Z" is featured as a stage where the Great Fox acts as the platform on which the players fight each other. The players can only traverse the ship length-wise. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Great Fox is featured on two stages; In the Corneria level, the Great Fox acts as a platform as in Super Smash Bros. (while it flies over the planet Corneria from Star Fox 64), while in the Venom level, the player traverses the ship width-wise as it flies over the planet Venom from Star Fox 64.
