[edit] Origin & Design

The Blue-Marine is a small, experimental and unpredictable assault submersible designed by Slippy and Beltino Toad. It features twin modified lasers to fire underwater, a unlimited torpedo launcher with a built in Targeting Computer to allow for homing torpedoes, as well as light shields and heavy armor. The propulsion system uses components originally developed for the Arwing, and can synthesize its own hydrogen fuel for the plasma engines, giving it a much greater operational range then normally possible. However, the Blue-Marine is considered slow and ungainly, and is a prime target for heavy fire. Even the most experienced of pilots have a hard time controlling this tempermental craft.

[edit] History

The Blue-Marine was first (and last) used in battle on the planet Aquas. There it was used against the bioweapon Baccoon and defeated the monster.
