Fiction
Operation Combination story pages
The Jet Corps have an extensive and personal history with the Autobot Road Corps, with each member having a rival on the other side. The Rivals of the Road Corps and Jet Corps Collide!
Scrash sent the Jet Corps to plunder Earth of its energy alongside Battle Gaia. They initially met resistence from the Road Corps, leaving Dark Jet to go toe-to-toe with Spin Road. The Road Army vs. the Jet Army! New Decepticons Appear!
Despite the efforts of the Road Corps, the Jet Corps and Battle Gaia continued to advance toward Earth. Out of options, Guard City and the Road Corps summoned forth all the Micromaster Combiners scattered across the globe to join in the battle which had finally arrived in Earth's orbit. The Decepticons' Attack on Earth!
Eventually, the Autobots united into the "Autobot Scrum Combination" which destroyed Battle Gaia and drove the Jet Corps back. The Jet Corps were last seen carrying the remains of Battle Gaia back into outer space. Conclusion

- Jet Corps (ジェット軍団, je-tto gundan)
- The members of the Jet Corps were released in the final year of Japan's Generation 1, available only in "versus" packs against the members of the Road Corps. Though they shared the missile-launching shtick of their Autobot enemies, they also retained the Megavisor gimmick of their European counterparts, the Predators... except that, as neither Skyquake or Stalker were released in "Operation Combination" proper, this feature seemingly went entirely unadvertised. (Skyquake WAS sold in the Japanese market, but in a European box covered with Japanese-language stickers.)
- Due to a combination of factors (one of them being GPS) the Jet Corps' launchers are quite delicate. It's best never to load one of the launchers while it is in the hand of them — the post is most likely to just snap right off.
