Delano 7

From Wikitroid, the Metroid wiki

Delano 7 is Sylux' gunship. It is a stolen Galactic Federation prototype, as is all of its gear. Scanning it in Metroid Prime Hunters reveals it is designated as a "Delta-class Strike Fighter". It is the same color and design as Sylux and is seen twice by Samus, first on Vesper Defense Outpost, where the ship used similarly to that of Metroid Prime 3's Command Visor, and secondly on Alinos where it flew over Samus. Sylux calls it in when he corners Samus Aran and it automatically fires its turret at her until she defeats him. The turret can temporarily be deactivated by shooting at the ship as this is one of the Ship's design flaws. The ship itself is based on Federation plans which were stolen by Sylux; the Delano 7 is a Federation prototype. One curious note: "Delano" is an old male French name meaning, "Of the Night."

[edit] Logbook Entry

"SYLUX's Delta-class Strike Fighter is believed to be a stolen Federation prototype. Due to an unresolved flaw, the autocannon can be temporarily disabled by several direct hits to the ship's hull."

[edit] Cameo

• In the 100% ending of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, a ship vaguely resembling a Delta-class Strike Fighter unlocks its wings, making an odd noise, and pursues Samus from Elysia.
