Background

The Arwing is the personal super-high performance combat spacecraft used by members of the Star Fox Team. Developed by Space Dynamics Co., Ltd., the Arwing is equipped with the revolutionary G-Diffuser system, an anti-gravity device which allows the pilot to accelerate or decelerate instantaneously and perform a wide variety of high performance combat maneuvers. By executing an aileron or barrel roll, the Arwing can also generate an electromagnetic shield which will deflect most optically based weapons, such as laser beams. The Arwings used by the Star Fox Team are much different from any production versions as they have been extensively modified with improved armor and advanced weapon systems, such as Hyper Laser Homing Bolts and Smart Bombs. Despite numerous revisions and redesigns over the course of the team's history, the many models of Arwings have maintained the balance of speed, power and performance that they are credited for. The Arwing starfighter is the primary battle vehicle of the Star Fox Team, and is almost the symbol of their team.

Powers and Stats

Tier: High 6-A, Higher with Twin Blasters Type A and B, Booster and Retro Rockets, and Nova Bombs

Name: Arwing

Origin: Star Fox

Sex: None

Age: Unknown (Was in the prototype phase when Andross attacked the Lylat System)

Classification: Spaceship

Users: Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, Slippy Toad, Peppy Hare, Miyu, Fay, Fox McCloud Sr. (formerly), Pigma Dengar (formerly)

Terrain: Lylat System outer space, sometimes used in atmosphere

Dimensionality: 3-D

Attack Potency: Multi-Continent level (Can defeat the Rock Crusher which are capable of reducing planetoids into cosmic space dust[1], with planetoids typically having a gravitational binding energy of 2.335E+28 Joules), Higher with Twin Blasters Type A and B (Both Twin Blaster Modules are direct upgrades over the standard Blaster[2]), Booster and Retro Rockets (Booster and Retro-Rockets are charged attacks from the Booster Meter[3], and Nova Bombs (Nova Bombs are bombs with massive destructive capability[3])

Durability: Unknown normally (Is usually one-shotted by all attacks after the Arwing Shields are depleted), Multi-Continent level with shields (Can withstand attacks from the Rock Crusher)

Speed: Supersonic+ in the atmosphere (Can move at Mach 4.2 at top speeds in the atmosphere), Speed of Light with Warp Speed (The Great Fox uses Warp Speed to travel at the speed of light across the Lylat System, which the Arwings display when in space)

Combat Speed: Supersonic+ with barrel roll (Can move fast enough to deflect projectiles with the Barrel Roll[4]), Speed of Light with Blasters (The Blaster and Twin Blaster are powerful laser cannons that fire laser beams at rapid speed[2])

Stamina: Unknown

Range: Dozens of Meters with Blasters (The lasers from the Blasters go far outward only stopping once colliding with an enemy), Hundreds of Meters with Nova Bombs (Creates a massive explosion that extends across the entire screen), Interplanetary with Radar Sensing (Can detect trouble from other planets in the Lylat system with the Arwing's mini radars)


Powers and Abilities

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Flight & Spaceflight (The Arwing is easily capable of space travel), Light Manipulation & Energy Manipulation (Can fire lasers with the Blasters & Twin Blasters[2]), Power Modification and Statistics Boost (Can fire off Booster & Retro Rockets when the Arwing's Booster Rocket Charge Meter is full[3]), Statistics Amplification (His rocket can accelerate temporarily with a speed boost), Explosion Manipulation (Can fire off Nova Bombs), Limited Attack Reflection (With the barrel roll, the Arwing can reflect some laser attacks[4]), Velocity Manipulation (The Arwing is equipped with the revolutionary G-Diffuser system, an anti-gravity device which allows the pilot to accelerate or decelerate instantaneously and perform a wide variety of high performance combat maneuvers), Forcefield Creation (Has a shield around it to protect it from attacks[2]), Power Modification & Plasma Manipulation (By collecting a second Twin Blasters power-up, the Arwing Blasters will be upgraded to Twin Blasters Type B[5], which fire plasma-based projectiles with greater size), Regeneration (After a stage is complete the Arwing will refill it’s shield gauge), Radar Sensing (Equipped with a mini radar that can scan your location, enemy locations, allows you to find other planets in danger, and allies plus items), Transformation & Pseudo-Body Control (Morphing; Advanced Control; The Arwing can enter a state of flight mode or walker mode, changing around it’s structure to suit both), Intangibility (Material; With the Power Shield, this powerful defensive shield can be obtained by taking a Shield Item. While the Power Shield is active, the Arwing will become transparent and will not take damage from enemy attacks or collisions[2]), Healing & Restoration (With Space Relief, replenishes the shield health of an arwing[6]. With Repair, restores two segments of the Arwing's shield meter[6]), Enhanced Forcefield Creation & Invulnerability (Physical Invulnerability; The Super Shield is a special shield that makes the Arwing impervious to all damage for a brief period[6]).

Resistance to Gravity Manipulation (The Arwing is equipped with the revolutionary G-Diffuser system, an anti-gravity device which allows the pilot to accelerate or decelerate instantaneously and perform a wide variety of high performance combat maneuvers), Pierce Resistance (Major Pierce Resistance; Due to the Arwing's shields, it can survive several laser blasts that would otherwise destroy the ship), Fire Manipulation (Can survive hits from the Dancing Insector, which attacks using Fire Blasters), Black Holes, Space-Time Manipulation & Physics Manipulation (Can travel inside of a black hole just fine)


Standard Equipment

  • Blaster: This Laser Cannon, equipped in the nose of the Arwing, fires a powerful laser beam.
  • Twin Blaster: By collecting the Twin Blaster item, the arwing can fire two laser beam Blasters simultaneously, one from each wing. When one or both of its wings are destroyed, it will revert back to a single Blaster firing out of the ship's nose.
  • Nove Bomb: This will drop a bomb that damages all the enemies that are within range of the explosion.

Power Shield


When you obtain this item, you will be impervious to the next several enemy attacks. You can obtain this protective shield by colliding with the object shown or by defeating the pictured enemy.


Notable Techniques

  • Blaster: This Laser Cannon, equipped in the nose of the Arwing, fires a powerful laser beam.
  • Twin Blaster: By collecting the Twin Blaster item, the arwing can fire two laser beam Blasters simultaneously, one from each wing. When one or both of its wings are destroyed, it will revert back to a single Blaster firing out of the ship's nose.
  • Nove Bomb: This will drop a bomb that damages all the enemies that are within range of the explosion.

Other

Weaknesses: Can lose the twin lasers if too much damage is taken and can lose the power shield if it collides with too many objects.

Note: This is the Arwing of Star Fox 1 & 2. The other games are a continuity reboot and take place in a different continuity.
