The "'''Airship Theme'''" is an {{wp|atonal}}<ref>{{cite|title=''[[Super Mario Series for Piano: Intermediate-Advanced Edition]]''|page=17}}</ref> musical theme commonly associated with [[airship]]s in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise. It was originally composed by [[Koji Kondo]] for airship and [[tank]] levels in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. The theme begins with a triplet-based rhythm evoking a military march, which plays throughout the rest of the theme. It is loosely based on "Mars, the Bringer of War," the first movement of {{wp|Gustav Holst}}'s ''{{wp|The Planets}}''.

==Composition==
The theme is orchestrated as {{wp|chiptune}} with a {{wp|timpani}} PCM sample in the original ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', being a game developed for the [[Family Computer]]. The original Airship Theme is short, lasting 30 seconds, though later arrangements would go on to extend the theme. It has been reused in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' (as well as [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its Nintendo 3DS port]]) and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' in airship levels of the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' style.

In the Japanese and American versions of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', the first part of the theme plays the {{wp|PCM}} sample slightly after the other channels by about a twelfth note, leading to slight desynchronization and the percussion being cut off early as the second part begins. This is corrected in the European version but retained in ''Super Mario Maker''.

==Arrangements==
===''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''===
In ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', an arrangement of the "Airship Theme" plays in scenes relating to the [[Bowser's Airship|Doom Ship]] and [[Doom Sub]].

===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario All-Stars''====
As ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' features a remake of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', the "Airship Theme" was given an updated, 16-bit arrangement on brass and timpani. This version skips the 2-bar timpani solo after the track loops. This arrangement is also included in the game's [[Wii]] port ''[[Super Mario All-Stars Limited Edition]]'', as well as ''[[Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World]]''.

====''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
The "Airship Theme" also received an updated arrangement in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. In the opening cutscene, the first half of the "Airship Theme" plays before transitioning to an original piece.

====''Super Mario Galaxy''====
A fully orchestrated arrangement of the "Airship Theme" titled "'''Attack of the Airships'''"<ref name="SMG Soundtrack">''[[Super Mario Galaxy Original Soundtrack]]''</ref> is featured in the opening of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', arranged by [[Mahito Yokota]]. A variation of this arrangement, titled "'''Airship Armada'''"<ref name="SMG Soundtrack"/>, plays in [[Bowser Jr.'s Airship Armada]]. "Airship Armada" has a shorter introduction than "Attack of the Airships" and it loops instead of ending.

"Attack of the Airships" can be heard in [[Bowser Jr.]]'s newcomer video for ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'' when the [[Koopalings]] appear. "Airship Armada" is reused in the opening of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' when [[Bowser]] appears. It also returns in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and can be heard in airship levels, though it is compressed and played on synthesized instruments. "Attack of the Airships" and "Airship Armada" both return along with ''Super Mario Galaxy'' in ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]''.

====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', a mostly faithful arrangement plays in airship levels. The melody is played by an organ instead of brass and a countermelody has been added before the piece loops. If the player runs short on [[Time Limit|time]], string accents are added to the arrangement along with the tempo increase. In the room before a boss fight, only the percussion plays. The arrangement is reused in airship levels in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'' (all three of which also reuse the pre-boss variation), ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. In ''Super Mario Run'', wind chimes and synthesized scratches are added to the theme during [[Coin Rush Star|Coin Rush]].

Sheet music for this arrangement is featured in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii: Simplified Piano Solos]]''.

====''Super Mario Maker''====
In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', when editing an Airship course in the [[Course Maker]], a more ambient techno-style arrangement of the corresponding Airship Theme plays, using multiple tracks that fade in and out randomly to create a dynamic mix. This arrangement returns in ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''.

The ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' version of the theme also receives new percussion parts for when Mario rides a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style, as this was impossible in such levels in the original game.
