Red Alert



Some wish Red Alert's bedside manner were as delicate as her surgical abilities. However, the enviable level of her skill more than compensates for her gruff demeanor. After losing her left arm to a Decepticon boobytrap, she's replaced it with a Transfer Interlink apparatus that can scan patients and emit various hard-light surgical tools.

Though she started out at the top of the class of Protihex Medical Mechanical, these days she serves as a field medic under Rodimus Prime's command. Sounds exciting, but this just means she spends most of her time patching up her fellow teammate Hot Shot.

Fiction
''During the Great War, Red Alert developed a cure for Gold Plastic Syndrome. It's something she's rather famous for.''

Millions of years later, long after the war had ended, Red Alert helped create the data merge that infused Decepticon flight technology into the rehabilitated bodies of Jetstorm and Jetfire.

Later, she was seen alongside her fellow Autobots Ironhide, Brawn, Hot Shot, and Rodimus Prime near a Space Bridge node fighting Decepticons. Her services were called into action when Hot Shot was hit by Strika—his leg was badly damaged and she told him it would have to be amputated, despite his protests. Her bedside manner didn't help when she told Hot Shot that a new one would be delivered by the Cybertron Service in six to eight solar cycles. Before the leg could be amputated, she was captured, swallowed, coated in explosive goo, and spat back out by Spittor. Hurled at Brawn and Ironhide, the resulting blast took all three out of commission.

She apparently got better because she was later seen in a crowd cheering for Sentinel Prime when he paraded his captured Decepticons on Cybertron. Decepticon Air Later still, she was also seen cheering for Optimus Prime and his crew when they returned to the planet after finally defeating Megatron.

The Cool comic
Red Alert, under the command of Rodimus Prime, was part of the group of Autobots that faced off against a Rock Lord when said creature threatened a Space Bridge outpost. Although frightened and unable to believe that they would be able to bring down the creature, it was her analysis that allowed Rodimus to deduce where the creature's weakspot was located.
