Red Alert is the name of several characters in the various fictional Transformers universes.
Red Alert (Alert in Japan, Паникёр in Russia) is the Autobot security director. He has enhanced senses and is usually depicted as a friend of the Autobot Inferno.
Red Alert first appeared in the episode "Dinobot Island, Part 1".
His most prominent appearance came in "Auto-Berserk" alongside Inferno. After a battle with the Decepticons ended with Red Alert being damaged by one of Rumble's missiles, the Autobot became paranoid that Inferno and the others were out to get him. Red Alert deserted and teamed up with Starscream (who had been abandoned by the Decepticons on the battlefield and decided to take revenge on Megatron) to steal an Autobot device called the Negavator. The conspirators succeeded in sneaking in the secret bunker where the Negavator was placed. But then the alarm system had snapped into action, and the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, appeared in the bunker just in the moment when the two chums tried to move the weapon away. But the Decepticons, headed by Megatron, arrived there, too. Megatron demanded Starscream to hand over the Negavator to him, and the latter agreed hastily, with the purpose of avoiding his leader's wrath. But Red Alert refused to give up the weapon, and the recent allies began to fight. After a blast in the abdomen by Starscream's Null Ray cured his paranoia glitch, Red Alert realized what he had done and destroyed the Negavator, setting fire to the cavern they were in - and a guilty Inferno rushed into the fire to save Red Alert's life. After this, Red Alert realized who his true friends were.
In an unused storyboard for The Transformers: The Movie, he is killed when Devastator shoots him in the back. Basically, he never appeared in the cartoon again, after the movie.
He made one appearance in the first episode of the Japanese exclusive series Transformers: The Headmasters.
