The Eggman Fleet, also known as the Egg Fleet, is a massive aerial assault force of flying battleships that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. This amazing, yet dangerous fleet of weaponized airships are built and commanded by the maniacal genius Doctor Ivo Robotnik (now known as Doctor Eggman) and temporarily by the evil robot Metal Sonic. Bristling with guns, cannons and robot armies, it is capable of laying waste to nearly everything in its path. Built for the purpose of helping the evil scientist take over the world, the Eggman Fleet has appeared in various forms in Sonic Heroes, Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic Unleashed, to aid Dr. Eggman in his quest of global domination.
