The Arwing is the title of the spacecraft flown by [[Characters in Super Smash Bros. (series)#Fox|Fox McCloud]] in the Nintendo StarFox series. The ship has many different models such as the Arwing II. The Arwing's relevance to Zelda is as a hidden enemy, which can be unlocked via moving around data somehow. Once found, the Arwing attacks similarly to other flying enemies, however, the Arwing can fire its laser weapons from the StarFox games.
==Characteristics==
The Arwing is the vehicle used by the {{lw|Star Fox (team)|Star Fox Team}} in the {{lw|Star Fox (series)|''Star Fox'' series}}. In {{OoT|-}}, an unused enemy Arwing can be found by modifying the game's data, either by hacking or using a cheat device. When [[Link]] enters an area with an Arwing, a small cutscene will play showing the ship appearing. The Arwing will then proceed to fly around the area and attack Link with its lasers.


The reasons for the Arwing being in the game, under the surface, is unknown. Its likely the designers placed it in the game as an April Fool's style joke as a surprise from Nintendo executives playing the game or quality checks. Its also not known why the Arwing wasn’t removed before release, and it certainly possible to find within the games code in cartridge form if not as well as its [[Nintendo GameCube]] and [[Virtual Console]] counterparts. Maybe it was meant to be in there as a real enemy, somehow connecting the StarFox universe with the Zelda universe. Hyrule may be one of the many worlds Fox McCloud happens to visit during his adventures. However, that can't be confirmed as it not is possible to play GC or Wii games on PC or move around data.
The Arwing was used to test the flight patterns of [[Volvagia]].<ref name="Volvagia"/> It was left in ports of the game to the [[Nintendo GameCube]] and [[Wii#Virtual Console|Virtual Console]], but is not present in {{OoT3D}}.


On consoles, this feature can be accessed with a [[Gameshark]] or an [[Action Replay]]. However, this can easily damage the game or the system.

* The Arwing's lasers use the same sound effects as {{Term|OoT|Phantom Ganon|link}}'s energy balls. When the Arwing is shot down, the sound of a {{Term|OoT|Dodongo|link}} inhaling is heard.
