Jetfire is an Autobot in the Unicron Trilogy.
Jetfire is probably the best second-in-command Optimus Prime could conceivably have. Jetfire is more than a yes-man, he's the crucial link between Prime's role-necessitated distance and his troops. Though professional and businesslike, Jetfire infuses his interactions with a down-to-earth friendliness. And where Optimus Prime is cautious, Jetfire more prone to tempered bursts of gusto and bravado. Jetfire is very popular among the Autobots.
But most importantly, Jetfire is one of the only Autobots who will tell Optimus Prime to his face when he thinks he's wrong. It is this trait that makes Jetfire indispensible.
He has a Decepticon alter-ego, Sky Shadow, which he affects when doing undercover missions. He found the name in history archives which referred somehow to the Predacon Fuzor Sky Shadow from the Beast Wars. Nobody's really sure how that works.
