The '''SCV-70 ''White Base''''' (ホワイトベース　''Howaito Bēsu''), also nicknamed '''Trojan Horse''' (木馬 ''Mokuba''), is a fictional [[spacecraft|spaceship]] from the Japanese [[science fiction]] anime series ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]''. It serves as the [[mothership]] of the protagonist Earth Federation crew members and the famous [[RX-78-2 Gundam]] mobile suit. Various spin-offs are designed after it, including a whole class of ships called the ''Pegasus-class'' assault carrier, and it has inspired ships in the sequels like the ''Argama-class'' in ''[[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam]]'' and ''Archangel-class'' in ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED]]''.<ref>''Otona no Gundam Perfect'', Nekkei Entertainment</ref>

Other non-''Gundam'' spaceships, such as the transformed mode of Fortress Maximus from the ''[[Transformers]]'' series, are possibly also inspired by ''White Base'''s design.
