The Aerialbots are a type of Transformers introduced in the 1980s cartoon series. They are Cybertronians with the ability to transform into flying vehicles and act as aerial support to their Autobot counterparts.

They transform into Earth-style aircraft and combine to form Superion. They are the mortal enemies of the Stunticons.

Members

Generation One

• Silverbolt — Concorde SST (Supersonic Transport) — acrophobic leader, and den mother
• Air Raid — McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle — impulsive and fearless close-quarters fighter
• Fireflight (sometimes also known as Firestrike or Firefly) — McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II — daydreamer, dangerously absent-minded flyer
• Skydive — General Dynamics F-16A Fighting Falcon — unassuming but gifted strategist, military history aficionado
• Slingshot (sometimes also known as Quickslinger) — British Aerospace Sea Harrier — insecure loud-mouthed jerk, VTOL capabilities

And sometimes:

• Alpha Bravo — helicopter — an insecure slowpoke who sometimes replaces Slingshot
• Powerglide — A-10 Warthog — show off who can sometimes transform into Superion's gun
• Balloon — hot air balloon — the first Aerialbot, basket case everyone tries to forget
• Airazor — fictional jet — small but fierce guy who occasionally replaces Slingshot
• Barrel Roll — Cybertronian jet — former hothead who has apparently mellowed with age
• Armada Thrust — F-14 Tomcat fighter jet — a dimension hopper and honorary member
