| The COBRA C.L.A.W.S. pilot takes to the skies as part of the air assault fleet in the COBRA organization. He is part of the COBRA C.L.A.W.S. elite troops, lightly armored heavy weapons specialists who can take a lot of punishment and dish out even more. Specially trained to operate the advanced technology that makes the COBRA helicopters and planes so menacing, the COBRA C.L.A.W.S. pilot conducts fast-attack missions and provides air support for ground troops. Arrogant and hot-headed, he looks for opportunities to start air battles with the G.I. JOE team, just so he can show off his piloting skill and demonstrate weapons expertise.
"The sky belongs to me, so get out of my way or you'll pay the price!"
