Broadside is an Autobot Triple Changer who premiered in 1986. Besides his robot mode, Broadside transforms into a jet fighter and an aircraft carrier. The alternate modes of a jet and a naval ship are ironic, considering that the character's "Tech Specs" reveal that he has acrophobia (the fear of heights) and kinetosis (motion sickness or, in the character's case, seasickness). Italian name: Mistral French name (Canada): Navalo Hungarian name: Deltás ("Muscly") but also Sortűz ("Fusillade")

| - Broadside is an Autobot Triple Changer who premiered in 1986. Besides his robot mode, Broadside transforms into a jet fighter and an aircraft carrier. The alternate modes of a jet and a naval ship are ironic, considering that the character's "Tech Specs" reveal that he has acrophobia (the fear of heights) and kinetosis (motion sickness or, in the character's case, seasickness). The alternate modes are also curious considering their size disparities of a jet fighter (specifically, the F/A-18 Hornet) which has a reported overall length of about 60ft (18m) and a "1200 ft aircraft carrier" (which would be longer then any present active aircraft carrier). Even for the science fiction setting of the franchise, such a disparity in size of the alternate modes is considered incredulous by the Transformer fandom and has brought about a degree of criticism and ridicule concerning the character.
