Also not a girl.
Skywarp is a Maximal from the Beast Wars II portion of the Generation 1 continuity.

Skywarp is a master of aerial combat who was dispatched from Cybertron to provide Leo Prime with backup on Gaia. He is very serious but knows when to lighten up. Skywarp has great consideration for young Maximal warriors and does his best to treat them with respect (though he occasionally has trouble with Lio Junior). He is a teacher at heart who tries to share his wisdom and skill with all who are willing to learn from it.

Together, with Lio Junior and Santon, he forms Magnaboss.

"Come on, vogue!"

While early TV Magazine page art depicted Skywarp as decidedly feminine, Skywarp was most certainly male in the Beast Wars II TV series. Why the change was made is uncertain; possibly it had to do with toy sales much in the way that Airazor was turned male for the Japanese dub of Beast Wars.
