Rafflesia

Rafflesia is the 11th boss in Gunship Battle. Afterwards it appears as a enemy or midboss.

Characteristics
Raffelsia shares its name with the Rafflesia arnoldii, aslo nicknamed 'Corpse Flower' which is also the mission's name.

Behaviour
Rafflesia doesn't normally attack the player, rather the Nuclear Missiles attack for it. If one destroys all the pods (and has enough patience to wait a while) then it will fire off a MASSIVE missile. This won't actually hit the player, but rather hits the Ally Territory instead.
