The Great Fox was still relatively new when James' only son [[Fox McCloud]], having re-formed the Star Fox Team following his father's apparent death, took ownership of the ship. The Great Fox was originally used as a carrier & repair facility for the team's [[Arwing|Arwings]], [[Landmaster]], and [[Blue Marine]], as well as acting in a logistical capacity by transferring supplies to the combat zone when needed. In terms of combat, the Great Fox used its powerful weapon systems (in the form of 2 powerful laser cannons) to aid the squadron's progression during missions, blowing apart asteroids and causing serious damage to massive battleships (such as the Venomian battleships that guard the [[Area 6]] access corridor to [[Venom]]). The ship's own defenses allow it to survive in a variety of environments, allowing it to be able to enter a planetary atmosphere, and land on planet-side spaceports, as well as having a limited aquatic capability (e.g. on [[Aquas]], where it half-submerged itself to deploy the Blue Marines). | The Great Fox was still relatively new when James' only son [[Fox McCloud]], having re-formed the Star Fox Team following his father's apparent death, took ownership of the ship.

The ship's major assignment was first breaking the invasion of Corneria by the [[Venomian Army]], and then re-capturing the occupied territories of the [[Lylat System]], and ultimately invading Venom itself, where Andross was defeated by Fox. | The ship's major assignment was first breaking the invasion of Corneria by the [[Venomian Army]], and then re-capturing the occupied territories of the [[Lylat System]], and ultimately invading Venom itself, where Andross was defeated by Fox. | ||
