Vortex

Vortex (ボルテックス, Borutekkusu) isn't much of a fighter. Instead, what Autobots fear is being caught in his magnetic grapples. Once they are in his clutches, Vortex will execute a series of terrifying maneuvers that leaves his victims scared oilless, shortly before dropping them to the planet surface, shell-shocked, to their deaths.

He is the interrogator of the Decepticons, and his favorite method of coaxing secrets from trembling Autobots is to take them on Mr. Vortex's Wild Ride. Laughing like a maniac, Vortex will treat Autobots held hostage within his cargo hold to a psychotic helicopter ride of twists, turns and near-death experiences. Then, once he has learned everything they have to tell: Kerplop!

Along with the other Combaticons, he can form as the left arm of Bruticus Maximus.

"I'm Vortex, fly me-if you dare!"

Vortex takes advantage of his flight mode by surveying the battlefield and blasting any Autobots who find their way into his weapon's scope.

Vehicle Mode
His veichle mode is a Cybertronian Helicopter which can also configurate itself into a Cybertronian Jet when he needs some more speed, when arriving to Earth he adapts the Earth vehicle mode of a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk.
