[edit] N64 Arwing
The Arwing used in the Nintendo 64's Star Fox64 had two G-Diffusers which were used to redistribute the G forces around the Arwing to change speed levels. It had three laser turrets, one on the bottom for single fire, and with a power up, two more would become usable underneath the G-Diffusers.
[edit] Assault Arwing
The Arwing used by Fox McCloud in the Lylat Wars days. Its weapons consist of two lasers and a multi-lock on; and Nova Bombs.The Arwing's shield is the normal average and the boost bar is one of the highest in Star Fox: Command with its four points, similar to the Arwing 2 and Sky Claw. The ships Time Bonus is three seconds.
[edit] Arwing II
The upgrade to the original Arwing that Fox McCloud pilots. The Arwing 2 can have a plasma or multi-lock upgrade compared to the assault arwing
[edit] Bullfrog
This is Slippy Toad's Fighter ship. Wider than the original Arwing, and has a plasma cannon. It's boost is limited, as well as it's maneuverabilities.
[edit] Sky Claw
Falco Lombardi's fighter arwing in Star Fox: Command. It's got a single laser and a multiple lock-on. It can fire only one single bomb, and has a low shield status. The boost bar, in contradiction, is one of the biggest in the whole game with its four points. It also has a three seconds bonus.
The Sky Claw looks a lot like the arwing from Star Fox 64, but the snout is more pointed and the wings are pointing a little bit downwards, something the ones in latter game did not. At the end of the wings there are 3 spikes, probably there to resemble feathers as Falco Lombardi is a bird. They could also serve the purpose to give the aircraft better maneuvers.
As mentioned above, Sky Claw is easily the arwing in the whole game with the best maneuvers.
