Revision as of 13:41, 8 April 2019
Template:Infobox Aircraft Carrier is one of the signature and recurring pieces of music in the Gradius series. Through the years, it has become one of the more memorable tracks of the series alongside Take Care, Poison of Snake and Dark Force.
Background
Originating in the original Gradius game, Aircraft Carrier has appeared in later installments of the Gradius games, and has even appeared in its multiple spin-offs, such as Salamander and Parodius.
It can be considered one of the signature pieces of music in the series, in spite of it's short length, and seemingly out of place tone. The theme is a high tempo jingle, used to signify that a large group of enemies are about to attack the player, (known as the stage's Sub Boss), and sometimes highlighting the arrival of the original Big Core warship.
In some later games, the theme is expanded upon, such as Gradius V or Otomedius Excellent!, in which the basic motif of the song is used as lead for an original piece of music.
