Description
Cyborg 002, whose real name is Jet Link, is one of the nine main protagonists in the 2012 CGI film 009 Re:Cyborg. An American by origin, Jet was recruited as an agent for the NSA before the events of the film, a background that provides him with considerable hand-to-hand combat skills and operational discipline.
In this incarnation, Jet is depicted with a modernized appearance, featuring short, combed-back blonde hair, pale skin, and blue eyes. He typically wears a dark forest-green trench coat over a dark gray suit with a matching tie, presenting a professional and somewhat noir-influenced aesthetic. His cybernetic nature is most evident in his legs, which house an advanced jet propulsion system. When he activates his power, the surface of his feet splits open to reveal thrusters that propel him into the air. For high-altitude flight, his body undergoes a significant transformation, with additional panels opening across his legs and back to reveal extra thrusters, streamlining his form for maximum aerodynamic efficiency.
Jet’s primary and defining ability is powered flight, which he can achieve at speeds of up to Mach 5. This makes him one of the fastest members of the team, comparable to the speed of Cyborg 009’s acceleration module. His cyborg body is specifically reinforced to withstand the extreme conditions of high-speed flight, including the low temperatures and pressure at altitudes over 3000 meters. He provides crucial air support, serving as the team's primary reconnaissance and aerial combat unit.
As a character, Jet Link is known for his fiery and brash personality, which often serves as a counterbalance to the calmer and more sensitive nature of the team leader, Joe Shimamura (009). He is outspoken and does not shy away from conflict, but this rebellious exterior masks a deep loyalty to his comrades. While he may occasionally clash with 009 over leadership decisions or strategy, he ultimately respects his role and follows him into battle. His motivations are rooted in a desire for justice and a strong sense of camaraderie with his fellow cyborgs, all of whom share the common origin of being unwillingly transformed by the Black Ghost organization. Jet's history as a gang member from New York City contributes to his street-smart attitude and his determination to fight against oppressive forces. Throughout the story of 009 Re:Cyborg, Jet acts as a reliable and powerful ally, using his unique flight capabilities to engage enemies and protect his teammates, with his straightforward and aggressive style providing a sharp contrast to the more introspective struggles of other characters.
