The vehicle 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's defense systems are similar to the [[Arwing]]'s in that it features the same [[Laser]]-firing and [[barrel roll]] capabilities. 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 Blue Marine's defense systems are similar to the [[Arwing]]'s in that it features the same [[Laser]]-firing and [[barrel roll]] capabilities.
