Carrier (Gametron vehicle)

The Carrier is the name of an aircraft that is used by Commander Razor in the world of Gametron in the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story "Inside The Game". It is a giant ship that is relatively the size of a modern-day battleship cruiser that has vertical ascent and descent capabilities, capable of remaining airborne for long periods of time without the need for refueling. In the story, the Carrier remains in operation until Razor captures Yori and Hefty who were traveling on board the Skimmer to reach Sarkamel's Citadel. At that point, when Razor left the ship with a group of Tower Guardians as his prisoners to be assimilated by his master Sarkamel, the Carrier was slowly "derezzed", although Hefty managed to keep a small portion of it from fully disappearing by using his power as a Smurf who became a Gametronian.

The Carrier is based on a similar-named craft that appears in Walt Disney's TRON.
