[[File:Fox Down Aerial Hitbox Smash 64.gif|thumb|Hitboxes of Fox's dair.]]
Fox spins very quickly while airborne, doing a [[drill]] downwards. This attack does 7 hits doing 2% damage per hit for a total of 14% damage and is an extremely weak [[meteor smash]]. Like all drill kicks, his drill can be very useful in [[combo]]s, but it's very easy to [[SDI]] out of. It is more difficult to escape the move the closer it's used to the opponent. With Fox being a [[fast faller]], [[Z-cancel]]ling helps with his down aerial, though it can still be performed in a [[short hop]] and [[autocancel]]led easily. It can combo into a {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|up tilt}} or {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|down tilt}}, both of which can chain into another down aerial at low percentages. In addition, it can combo into a {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|down special|alt=shine}} (onstage or offstage, the former allowing a quick [[shine jab]] to be performed and the latter being an easy [[shine spike]] setup), a [[grab]], or an {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|up smash}} for a quick and powerful vertical KO. It can also be used as a part of Fox's wall combos in the "tent" portion of [[Hyrule Castle]], being usable in place of an up aerial after a throw before KO percentages to rack up further damage easily, than combo into a regrab.
