The '''Blue Marine''' is is a small, experimental and unpredictable assault submersible designed by [[Slippy Toad|Slippy]] and [[Beltino Toad]]. It was developed for recreational use by Slippy although he modified it for battle when [[Fox McCloud|Fox]] told him they would need it for a mission on [[Aquas]]. It was only used on Aquas, where it fought the bioweapon, [[Bacoon]]. | The '''Blue Marine''' is is a small, experimental, and unpredictable assault submersible designed by [[Slippy Toad|Slippy]] and [[Beltino Toad]] during ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' and the [[Star Fox 64 3D|3DS remake]].

Its lasers were designed to fire underwater, that can be upgraded to Twin or Hyper, an unlimited torpedo launcher with a built in [[Targeting Computer]] to allow for homing torpedoes, as well as light shields and heavy armor. The Blue Marine was not designed for deep sea missions, so Fox was forced to use [[Light Torpedo]]es to temporarily give him sight in the dark oceans of Aquas. The propulsion system uses components originally developed for the [[Arwing]], and can synthesize its own hydrogen fuel for the plasma engines, giving it a much greater operational range than normally possible. | ||
The current status of the Blue Marine is unknown as the Star Fox team would likely keep it in their mothership, the [[Great Fox]], which was destroyed during the invasion of the [[Aparoid Homeworld]]. Though, in ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', all air fighters were able to successfully manuever in the missions on Aquas, possibly rendering the Blue Marine obsolete even if it had survived, although the events in Command fall into questionable canonity. | The current status of the Blue Marine is unknown as the Star Fox team would likely keep it in their mothership, the [[Great Fox]], which was destroyed during the invasion of the [[Aparoid Homeworld]].
