Arwing

Arwings are small battleships from the Star Fox series. They appear in the background of all Star Fox stages in the Super Smash Bros. series, namely Sector Z, Corneria, Venom and Lylat Cruise. They fly by, creating another platform, or shoot that the players from behind. They are piloted by Peppy Hare and Slippy Toad, and either Fox or Falco in the Adventure Mode.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee ' s Adventure Mode stage Corneria, Arwings are not present in the first battle against Fox or Falco, but charge for a heavy attack in the second battle. A Trophy of an Arwing also appears in Super Smash Bros. Melee. A similar machine is the Wolfen.

An Arwing also appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl ' s adventure mode, The Subspace Emissary. It is hit by a laser beam of the Battleship Halberd, and knocks Kirby and Princess Peach off the battleship on its way to the ground. Presumably, the Arwing will have then crashed near a lake where Diddy was then captured by Rayquaza.

Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Melee
''The Arwing is the symbol of Star Fox. Like an F-Zero racer, it's equipped with an opposing-gravity device. It can barrel roll and flip with ease thanks to its quick acceleration and flexible control. In battle, the ship uses retractable wings for precise flying. Every Arwing has smart bombs as its sub-weapons.''
