Revision as of 06:20, 13 April 2007

This article is about the Decepticon-turned-Autobot Cyberjet from Japan's Generation 2. For the Hasbro character with the exact same toy, see Air Raid.
Aero Raid is an Autobot in the Generation 2 continuity family.

The Autobot Cyberjet known as Aero Raid was once a member of the Decepticon Cyberjet team. However, centuries of war began to change his opinion on right and wrong, so along with fellow Cyberjets Jetfire and Strafe, he switched sides. This betrayal of the Decepticon faction has earned him the undying scorn of the remaining Decepticon Cyberjets.


Fiction

Japanese G2 story pages and minicomics

While infiltrating a Decepticon base, Road Rocket was spotted by Road Pig and his troops. Road Pig cornered Road Rocket in a dead end hallway with the Autobot greatly out-numbered. Suddenly, Aero Raid burst out of a vent shaft, offering back-up to his comrade. Road Rocket, being the stoic that he is, was less than grateful.

Dreamwave Generation 1 comic continuity

Right there, under Shouki's armpit. Next to Rapido. What? Yes, of course this is worth mentioning. Why do you ask?

Aero Raid is part of the crowd at one of Prowl's many longwinded speeches. Skyfire

With Air Raid being deactivated on Earth, and Skyjack having deco that's not present here, one can only assume that it's Aero Raid. Or one can be reasonable enough to write it off as a random error. That's no fun.
