In ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', the Star Fox team has to get a new mothership after the Great Fox gets destroyed in ''Assault''. However, the new ship looks totally different from the Great Fox's past models, resembling more of a space-faring aircraft carrier than a battle-cruiser. It is also significantly weaker in terms of defense than the original Great Fox.  The original Great Fox could survive a simultaneous direct hit from three missiles and come out with only one wing destroyed, while the new one can't even withstand an assault by even the weakest of enemies, this could possibly be because of this ship being much less expensive than its predecessors. But its redeeming quality is the ability to carry up to three missiles which can be used to attack clusters of enemies from afar rather than attack them directly with a pilot.
