Nightbird (ship)

This article is about the Autobot cargo ship from the IDW comics. For the human-made ninja robot, see Nightbird (G1).

The Nightbird is a starship from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Not particular female, ninja or robot though...

The Nightbird is an Autobot cargo vessel. As such, it's not the fastest vessel around.
