Short-range rocket jumper

Short-range rocket jumpers are devices from the Marvel portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Short-range rocket jumpers allow Transformers to fly in robot mode, presumably over relatively short distances. They attach to the back of a Transformer's legs.

Fiction

Marvel Comics continuity

The Battlechargers were equipped with short-range rocket jumpers while carrying out a mission given to them by Megatron. The rocket jumpers came in handy when they decided to ditch that mission and instead have some fun spraying graffiti on American monuments. They also used the rocket jumpers to defend themselves from RAAT and Circuit Breaker. Decepticon Graffiti!

Notes

• Flight is not an ability the Battlechargers are known for, so these short-range rocket jumpers are probably special equipment the Battlechargers were given to complete their assignment.
