| abstract | - Swoop is a joyful, friendly Dinobot who just wants to be your friend! He wants to love you and hug you and squeeze you and take you for flying trips and you're going to be bestest friends forever because he's so happy to see you! He especially wants you to meet his new awesome super best buddy Jazz, wheeeeee! In flying mode, Swoop can soar up to 250 mph. Under each wing he carries an air-to-air missile launcher. Each missile is the equivalent of 5000 lbs. of TNT. Although the missiles have a range of 8 miles and are very accurate, Swoop's specialty is swooping down to low altitudes and releasing them virtually point blank at their targets, and then speeding away. In Autobot mode he can also use the launchers, as well as a thermal sword, which, by heating up to temperatures of 4000 degrees Centigrade, can slice through most materials by melting through them as it passes. Although he's extremely maneuverable and has great endurance due to low fuel consumption, Swoop is vulnerable to enemy firepower due to the relatively fragile nature of his wings.
