| The name or term "Swoop" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Swoop (disambiguation). |
- Swoop is an Autobot from the War for Cybertron portion of the Aligned continuity family.

Like Grimlock, Swoop has the habit of referring to himself in the third person. Also like Grimlock, he is one of the more powerful Autobots, and though the other Autobots undoubtedly think of him as dim, he's at least enthusiastic about fighting Decepticons. His Cybertronian fighter mode can rain plasma down on any foe he faces.
