Splash Warfly, known as Splash Uofly (スプラッシュ・ウオフライ)[2] in Japan, is a Maverick from the X era, appearing as one of the main bosses in Mega Man X7. He is a water-themed Reploid based on a flying fish, who attacks with a naginata and water lasers. He is a member of the vigilante syndicate Red Alert.
In the Games
Mega Man X7
Splash Warfly debuts in Mega Man X7 as one of the eight Mavericks on the Stage Select screen. He is a member of Red Alert who occupies the seas in a navy fleet, serving as the boss of the Battleship stage. He fights by diving in and out of the water between attacks with his naginata. Defeating Splash Warfly grants Splash Laser to Axl and X, and the D Glaive and Suiretsusen to Zero. His weakness is the Volt Tornado or Raijinshou from Tornado Tonion, which stuns him and resets his pattern. A boss attack rematch with Splash Warfly later occurs in the Crimson Palace.

Behind the Scenes
- "His design features mechanized fish features such as gills and scales, and because he dives and moves underwater, his design is inspired by a diver. Initially, the character was based on an "archer fish" that spits water from its mouth, but that alone wasn't enough, so we decided to include elements of a "flying fish" in his appearance, resulting in his current form." - (Concept Art Room)[4]
