Known to some as "The Tealmobile".

The combined form of the Speed Chaser Team, the Magnawing (マグナウイング Magunauingu) is an aircraft that allows the team easy transport around the world while hunting down Mini-Cons not serving Unicron. Although the full extent of its capabilities are not known, the individuals who form it are all intensely dangerous to normal Mini-Cons, and their combined form is known to be even more dangerous.

Fiction

Linkage

The Speed Chaser Team first formed the Magnawing at Top Gear's insistence, when Scavenger interfered with their attempts to capture the Super Stunt Team. After combining, they beat a hasty retreat. Linkage Part 4 The combined form next arrived to intercept Falcia, assaulting her with a barrage of firepower and easily enduring her return shots. Unleashing a powerful energy burst, the Magnawing was driven off when Combusta arrived and hit the craft with a blast from her cannon mode... although they may have simply left because they had completed their objective, damaging Twirl's Mini-Con plate severely. Linkage Part 6

Although the "runaways" managed to survive these assaults, the Magnawing brought their greatest danger to them—Ravenus. Kept inside an egg-shaped container, Ravenus was towed into place by the wing and released to the horror of the Mini-Cons. Linkage Part 9 The Magnwing then gave the bulk some room while he forced some of the enemy mini-cons to powerlinx with him in an attempt to access the Linkage and destroy it. Linkage Part 10 After explaining how dangerous Ravenus was, the Speed Chaser Team flew off along with him, and the newly empowered Redline gave chase, apparently able to keep a match on the Magnawing's firepower while still keeping up with Ravenus.
