	~~[[File:GF Sonic Bomber .jpg\|right\|upright=1.5\|thumb\|]]~~
	Quick and impulsive in both physical speed and temperament, '''Sonic Bomber''' (ソニックボンバー ''Sonikku Bonbā'') is known among his fellow Autobots as often being the first into battle. While his personality can sometimes grate on his commander, [[Optimus Prime (Armada)\|Optimus Prime]], the Autobot leader values both Sonic Bomber's strength and his desire for peace throughout the cosmos. Together, Sonic Bomber and Optimus Prime can form the speedy Sonic Convoy to rout their [[Decepticon]] opponents.

	~~Sonic Bomber has his own personal team of [[Mini-Con]]s, the [[Caliber Mini-Con Team]].~~

	~~{{note\|In the ''Cybertron'' dub of ''Galaxy Force'' and surrounding media, Sonic Bomber was recharacterized as [[Wing Saber (Energon)\|Wing Saber]], a preexisting character. See~~ [[Wing Saber (Energon)#Cybertron cartoon~~]] for a near-identical account of Sonic Bomber's actions in the ''Galaxy Force'' cartoon.}}~~

	~~===''Galaxy Force'' comic===~~
	~~[[File:GF Sonic Bomber comic.jpg\|thumb\|left\|]]~~
	When the [[Unicron Singularity\|Grand Black Hole]] swallowed [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]], Sonic Bomber was on the planet and considered lost to the [[Autobot]]s who had fled to [[Earth]]. In actuality, Cybertron was reconstituted within the black hole and managed to transform into its true form as the [[Transformer]]s' creator, [[Primus]]. The god sent Sonic Bomber to join the war over the [[Cyber Planet Key]]s. Once Sonic Bomber arrived on Earth in the midst of an attack from the [[Omega Lock]]-empowered [[Starscream (Armada)\|Starscream]] and his army of "[[Ancient Decepticon\|Earth Decepticons]]", he explained to the other Autobots what became of Cybertron and also revealed that he now carried a power gifted from Primus himself. After entreating [[Optimus Prime (Armada)\|Optimus Prime]] to also feel the power of Primus through the [[Matrix of Leadership\|Matrix]], Sonic Bomber combined with his commander to form Sonic Convoy. Overwhelmingly powerful, Sonic Convoy was able to singlehandedly end the threat of Starscream and the Earth Decepticons, opening the way for new adventures in the future for the Autobots. {{storylink\|Galaxy Force Mission.9}}

	: ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)\|Galaxy Force]]'' Sonic Bomber transforms into a heavily armed military plane based on an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#A-10 Thunderbolt II\|A-10 Thunderbolt]]. Pressing the button behind his cockpit canopy causes a mini-gun sound to emit from a speaker on the bottom of the nosecone. Plugging a Cyber Key into the key slot behind his canopy splits the nosecone fuselage in half and exposes a cannon with a red LED. Pressing the button activates the same mini-gun sound effect, this time with the red LED flashing unobstructed.

	:Sonic Bomber's wing-flaps detach to form swords; for Sonic Bomber to use them, they need to be inserted into sword-handles that plug into 5mm holes in his forearms, as his hands are incompatible with the standard weapon-pegs. His removable spring-loaded missile launchers, mounted under his wings, can also be attached to those ports. His Key-activated cockpit [[gimmick]] can also be used in robot mode, being mounted over his head via a supporting strut, although it points at an upward angle. Sonic Bomber can also form a backpack for [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron\|''Galaxy Force'' Galaxy Convoy]]'s super mode, forming "Sonic Convoy". Galaxy Convoy can hold Sonic Bomber's swords in any of his modes and the sword hilts also act as adaptors to allow Optimus to hold and use [[5 mm post\|5mm post]] weapons

	:Sonic Bomber preceded [[Hasbro]]'s [[Wing Saber (Energon)#Cybertron\|''Cybertron'' Wing Saber]] by several months, and has a slightly different deco. Sonic Bomber figures tended have a misaligned "nose guard" that can obscure the eyes in some cases, and were fixed for the Wing Saber release. Deco differences include the lack of silver-chromed saber blades and a gold chromed chest shield, while minor changes were made to the graphics on the plane, such as an entirely red nosecone, and smaller [[Autobot]] insignias on the wings. Sonic Bomber was also released by [[Mocom Toy]] as "Ultra Jet" in the Korean ''Galaxy Force'' toyline, with no discernable differences, other than the packaging.

	:This toy doubles as the ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' character [[Wing Saber (BWU)\|Wing Saber]], and this mold was [[redeco]]ed to make [[Transformers (2007 toyline)\|the 2007 movie toyline]]'s [[Wingblade#Toys\|Wingblade]].

	: Part of a large [[Toys"R"Us]] [[exclusive]] multi-pack, this release of Sonic Bomber received a number of small detailing changes; his saber blades were changed from silver chrome to gold chrome, all red paint was changed to metallic red, and the chest shield halves were now red chrome rather than gold. Benefiting from the Hasbro tweak, this version also has a properly aligned "nose guard".

	~~: He was only available in the "Sonic Convoy" set with a largely-transparent [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#SonicConvoy\|Galaxy Convoy]] and the [[Cobybot#Toys\|Coby ''Sen'yō'' Ramble]].~~

	~~: None of the toys in this box set were given bio cards. Aww.~~

	~~==Notes==~~
	~~[[File:CYB sonic bomber originalsculpt.jpg\|right\|upright=0.85\|thumb\|Sonic Bomber has wing sabers.]]~~
	*Sonic Bomber's original [[prototype]] featured a different [[alternate mode\|vehicle mode]] nosecone design than seen on the final toy. As revealed by the Japanese online retailer [http://www.amenbo.com Amenbo.com] on April 29, 2005, the original sculpt had a much greater resemblance to the A-10 Thunderbolt, with a rounded nose cone, a correctly shaped (translucent) canopy, and twin translucent gatling cannons. It's possible that the [[design change\|change]] from this more realistic sculpt to the entirely opaque one seen on the final toy occurred in order to avoid licensing issues.
	*For ''Cybertron'', Sonic Bomber was originally to be dubbed "Knockdown", likely following ''Galaxy Force''{{'}}s lead in having him be a new character. This was presumably changed to have another preexisting character (Wing Saber) in the series.
