'''The Subspace Gunship''' is described as the ultimate weapon of the [[Subspace Army]]. Its cannon can fire a blast which 'infinitely rends space' and that can create the effects of the detonation of a [[Subspace Bomb]] at great distance. [[Ganondorf]] forces the R.O.B.s in the [[Subspace Bomb Factory]] to detonate the [[Subspace Bomb|Subspace Bombs]] there in order to create a large enough area of [[Subspace]] to bring in the Gunship. The Gunship is the largest ship in the game by far, and is commanded by [[Ganondorf]] and [[Bowser]]. | '''The Subspace Gunship''' is described as the ultimate weapon of the [[Subspace Army]].

==Appearance== | |||
The Gunship consists of a slender, mostly cylindrical forward half and a thicker back half, the entirety of which is colored gray. Two pointed ends come out of the bottom of the Gunship. The sides of the back end are circular, which is the general shape of the emblem of the [[Subspace Army]]. A large number of vertical segments stretch out of the Gunship's core; their purpose is unknown. The front half of the Subspace Gunship is its main cannon, and is fairly simple in design. A thicker, horizontal segment houses five batteries of cannons. | |||
The Gunship is captained from a small platform on its back half. In the cutscene [[The Great Invasion]], [[Ganondorf]] and [[Bowser]] command it from this platform. It is unknown how their commands are issued, as there apparently is no means of interface with the Gunship itself on this platform. | |||
==Armaments== | |||
The Subspace Gunship has a battery of five turrets stationed on the main cannon, on top of the Gunship. These turrets fire orange blasts of energy, one of which was responsible for destroying the [[Halberd]]. The circular sides of the Gunship house a number of turrets that fire green blasts. These turrets are not activated until the smaller craft emerge from the wreckage of the Halberd. | |||
The main cannon of the Gunship comprises almost half of the vessel. In a massive explosion, it fires a chaotic purple beam that replicates the effects of a Subspace Bomb where it hits. Prior to firing, conduits around the barrel glow with purple light. The blasts are powerful and are said to be capable of 'infinately rending space,' but is unknown how long the Gunship must recharge in the interim of said blasts because the Gunship only uses this cannon a sigle time before it is destroyed by [[Kirby]]. | |||
In the [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]], Ganondorf and Bowser test its power on an arbitrary area of water. The [[Halberd]] moves in to attack the Gunship but is destroyed. In the end, the Gunship is destroyed by [[Kirby]] on the [[Dragoon]], thus foiling [[Tabuu]]'s attempts at invasion. The Gunship is seen exclusively in the cutscene [[The Great Invasion]]. | In the [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]], Ganondorf and Bowser test its power on an arbitrary area of water.
