Umbra-class Defense Station

Umbra-class Defense Stations were large satellites utilized by the Venomian Army during the Lylat Wars. Built in the shape of a large wheel with two spikes as spokes, these defense platforms supported a large number of rapid-fire laser cannons used to swat opposing starfighters out of the sky. The defense stations though were weakly-armored and could be destroyed by concentrated starfighter-grade lasers.

Thirty-one Umbra satellites were used in the defense of Venom during the Battle of Area 6. The Star Fox Team avoided the deadly fire of the Umbras and succeeded in destroying many in their race to reach Venom.
