Editing Defiant (G.I. Joe)

The '''''Defiant''''' is a modular [[starship]] owned and operated by [[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]. A tough little ship, its formidable arsenal makes it a powerful defensive tool but an even greater offensive one.

When [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] approached [[Earth]], [[General Flagg]] rolled out a diplomatic stage for the [[Transformer]]s while also sending [[Scarlett]] in the ''Defiant'' to invade the metallic planet should the natives prove hostile. When the [[Decepticon]]s did indeed prove hostile, Flagg ordered the ''Defiant'' into action. {{storylink|I Saw Three Ships}}

The ''Defiant''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s first act of war was to launch a bombing run, starting with the abandoned [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]], dropping its [[G.I.Rocket|green bombs]] across the inorganic world. When the ''Defiant'' turned its weapons on [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]], however, its crew found the saurian Decepticon protected by an impregnable [[force field]] earning [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]'s attention. When [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] was deployed as a countermeasure, the ''Defiant'' split in two, the [[combiner]] ripping the larger module apart. The shuttle module, piloted by [[Wild Bill]], was shot down by the Decepticon air forces. Making the best of it, Bill slammed the ''Defiant'' into Devastator, splitting him apart and killing [[Long Haul (G1)|Long Haul]]. {{storylink|Targetmasters (issue)|Targetmasters}} {{storylink|Earth: R.I.P.}}
