Located on [[Crateria]] after landing on Zebes, the Gunship has a similar function in ''Super Metroid'' as it does in ''Metroid II'', with a few added capabilities. Merely entering it causes Samus to replenish any depleted ammunition, energy, and to save her progress. After destroying [[Mother Brain]], Samus uses this ship to escape Zebes before its destruction. | Located on [[Crateria]] after landing on Zebes, the Gunship has a similar function in ''Super Metroid'' as it does in ''Metroid II'', with a few added capabilities.

Samus's gunship lands on [[Aether]] after Samus receives a distress signal from the planet. As she approaches the surface, the unstable atmosphere damages the ship. Throughout the game, Samus's ship remains in [[Temple Grounds]]' [[Landing Site]]. There, Samus can use it to save progress and regain [[energy]], [[Missile Ammo]], [[Power Bomb Ammo]], and [[Beam Ammo]]. | [[File:Gunship mp2 Screenshot 01.png|left|thumb|200px|The Gunship repairing itself]] | ||
Samus's gunship lands on [[Aether]] after Samus receives a distress signal from the planet. As she approaches the surface, the unstable atmosphere damages the ship. Throughout the game, Samus's ship remains in [[Temple Grounds]]' [[Landing Site]], undergoing automatic repairs.<ref>{{cite|Your ship has been damaged.

''[[Metroid: Other M]]'' also features the classic ship. The ship is used by Samus in opening scenes and is used to reach the [[Bottle Ship]]. Unlike other games, Samus cannot use the ship to save or refill her energy reserves or any of her weaponry. Unlike ''Corruption'', ''Other M's'' gunship holds a highly inactive role. It sits parked aboard a Bottle Ship landing site. The controls used for this ship appear different from those of any other gunship; it is controlled via a spherical mechanism similar to a {{wp|Mouse (computing)|mouse}}. Samus leaves the Bottle Ship on her gunship after defeating the [[Metroid Queen]] and returns to retrieve [[Adam Malkovich|Adam's]] helmet. She then escapes again as the Bottle Ship is on the verge of destruction. | ''[[Metroid: Other M]]'' also features the classic ship.

This design of the gunship appears briefly in the opening scenes of ''Metroid Fusion''. As Samus maneuvers it alongside the [[Biologic Space Laboratories Research Station|B.S.L Station]], the [[X Parasite|X parasites]] inside her body begin taking over her body and make her lose consciousness. The ship then veers off into an asteroid belt.<ref>{{cite|Once the X had infested my central nervous system, I lost consciousness and my ship drifted into an asteroid belt.|[[Samus Aran]]|[[Metroid Fusion]]}}</ref> The ship's safety measures, however, manage to eject Samus within an [[Escape Pod|escape pod]], which [[Biologic Space Laboratories|B.S.L]] researchers later find.
