Notes

[edit]
  • Air Raid's Vulcan cannon is an odd addition to his weapons by the the Dreamwave More than Meets the Eye writers; it is presumably a reference to the real-world [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}M61 Vulcan|{{#if:||M61 Vulcan}}]], which is a common armament of [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle|{{#if:F-15 Eagles|F-15 Eagles|McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle}}]], but aside from Blitzwing's chain gun, none of the other Transformers with real-world alternate modes received similar additions in their profiles, even those who transform into F-15 Eagles such as Skywarp, Starscream, and Thundercracker.
