==Summary==
The Egg Fleet (also referred to as the Eggman Fleet) is the might of the Eggman Empire given aerial form, a formidable armada of flying battleships. Their force is most often commanded and directed by Dr. Eggman in his path of global conquest, each battleship loaded with a vast amount of Badniks, but it has occasionally aided the heroes (even if inadvertently) in times such as defending Earth against the invasion of the Black Arms.
