Hover Unit (Archie)

The Hover Unit is a multipurpose hovercraft employed by the forces of Dr. Ivo Robotnik, that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics.

The Hover Units were far less frequently seen in the Archie Comics, but did make occasional appearances. In the "EndGame" storyline, a Hover Unit attacked the transport carrying Sonic the Hedgehog and others to the Devil's Gulag prison, allowing Sonic the opportunity to escape custody and clear his name after he'd been framed for the attempted assassination of Princess Sally Acorn. In Knuckles the Echidna #29 of Knuckles the Echidna, Sally pilots a Hover Unit when she travels to Angel Island in an attempt to enlist the support of the Brotherhood of Guardians in the Kingdom of Acorns' war against the Eggman Empire.
