==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics===
Professor Purnel had been developing PARD at a secret research facility in the [[United Kingdom]] for at least five years before its first successful test. Intended to direct missiles back at their senders, he ensured that the test signal would not affect man-made technology though it interfered with the systems of the two warring factions of earthbound Cybertronians instead, causing the Autobots to attack [[Human|humans]] and the Decepticons to apologise and try to fix things.

As the [[Transformers]] attempted to track down the source of the signal, Purnel uncovered a rat in his own house - his assistant [[Zeke Heilmann]] was a spy who intended to steal PARD. Heilmann floored Purnel with a stool and set fire to the control room, stealing the core of PARD and a nearby [[Jazz (G1)|Porsche]] to escape. Unfortunately for Heilmann, [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] caught up with them, and in the ensuing battle both PARD and Heilmann were destroyed by one of Jazz's heat-seeking missiles. {{storylink|To a Power Unknown!]}
