Gunships,[1] also known as Thug fighters, are enemies in Into the Nexus. They are Thugs-4-Less vehicles designed to attack opposition from the air.
The gunships' attacks resemble the attacks used by the Thug Leader's helicopter in Going Commando, namely in their twin laser cannons, missile launchers, and electro beam.
History[]
Ratchet and Clank encountered three gunships in Weeblesnog City on planet Silox during "Make your way to the relay station" and "Travel to the sky train station".
A large gunship was found crashed on a small mountain in the Hagrow Swampland on planet Thram. There were creatures living near the wrecked ship and a key for the Gadgetron vault is located next to it.
Characteristics[]
The gunship features a sleek, aerodynamic frame with a predominantly purple and teal color scheme accented by yellow markings. Its forward section tapers into dual protruding cannons, while the mid-body houses exposed mechanical components and cylindrical engine units. Broad, curved wing-like structures extend from the rear.
Combat[]
Gunships have twin rapid-fire laser cannons, missile launchers, and a horizontal energy beam that spans the ground. These attacks are telegraphed and can be dodged, but the durability of gunships may necessitate the use of upgraded V3 weapons.
