The Swarm Fighter, also known as Hover, is an enemy that appears in Star Fox Command.

In Star Fox Command

Swarm Fighters are small basic Anglar ships which attack in groups of three or more, firing small orange lasers which can easily be avoided. The ships are presumably called "Swarm Fighters" because of this tactic, as well as the fact that they attack in large groups, with a minimum of three and a maximum of twelve. The ships themselves are highly vulnerable to attack. The reason for this is that the ships are mostly made out of aluminum, which keeps the vessels from being dissolved from the acidic waters of planet Venom, therefore making the strength of their shields very weak. Swarm Fighters often drop cores when defeated. They are most likely the weakest starfighters to have ever been manufactured and utilised by the Anglar army. These ships saw combat on Corneria and Katina. They also appear in the Training Mode, where Rob sets up training for Fox before engaging into combat with the enemy. 

• Shield Strength: 1
• Weapon Strength: 2 (Corneria Variant), 3 (Katina Variant)
