In the Sonic the Hedgehog universe, the Egg Carrier is a formidable flying fortress frequently utilized as a mobile base of operations by Doctor Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik. It is part of a long line of Eggman aerial strongholds, stretching all the way back to Sky Base in Sonic the Hedgehog (8-bit), and including the Wing Fortress and Flying Battery.
Multiple individual skyships have held the name "Egg Carrier". The most prominent is the original, which featured as an Adventure Field in Sonic Adventure. A somewhat smaller, sleeker version of the craft appears in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006).
Sonic Adventure
The Egg Carrier is capable of transforming into two forms; the second form extended the wings, making it impossible to get to the bridge without going through the Sky Deck first. Three of this near invincible vessel were constructed. The first is currently floating 20 miles off the coast of the Mystic Ruins near Miles "Tails" Prower's laboratory. The second one was destroyed by Perfect Chaos who fired an aquatic ionization beam which disrupted engine function which caused it to crash. But since the Egg Carrier's formidable cannon was activated and fully charged it caused the second Egg Carrier to explode. The second Egg Carrier was said by Eggman to have been created just in case Chaos rebelled. The location of the third Egg Carrier is unknown but is suspected to have been remodeled into the Egg Fleet Mothership or it is believed that the Egg Carrier was the prototype ship for the Egg Fleet.
Sonic '06
The new model Egg Carrier seen in this game does not actually sport a game stage. Nonetheless, it features prominently in many of the game's cutscenes, and Sonic pursues the speeding craft on foot during the Mach Speed section of Wave Ocean. And while there is no full level, the last boss within Sonic's story, the Egg-Wyvern, is fought on the underside of the Carrier. After the battle, Eggman's skyship explodes in spectacular fashion during a cutscene as Sonic rescues Elise from the disintegrating craft.
