Raijingo (ライジンゴー Raijingō?) is a multi-purpose combat vehicle presented to Goro Watari by Captain Sala, the leader of the Youth League. It has a flashy design painted in red and yellow. The capacity is 5 people[1].

Raijingo in Inazuman Flash is concentrated in the early episodes, and hardly appears in the latter half. In the revised scenario of episode 23, there was a scene where Raijingo would play an active role after defeating Sadespar, but it was cut[2].

Overview[]

Raijingo2

Inazuman with Raijingo.

The front part opens and closes like a mouth with a roar, allowing for bite attacks, as well as firing 4 missile cannons and a net from the inside. A pinching attack with the lower jaw (it was called Raijin Finger (ライジンフィンガー Raijin Fingā?) only in episode 4 of Inazuman Flash.) are also possible. A smoke screen is emitted from the rear of the vehicle. An autopilot is also possible, and if called by Inazuman, it will fly to any place in the land, sea, or air, and will transform from an automobile form (自動車形態 jidōsha keitai?) to an aviation form (飛行形態 hikō keitai?)[3] that deploys the main wings and flies at Mach 3, and shoots down the fighters of the Neo-Human Empire one after another. In addition, vertical take-off and landing is possible by the rotor of the main wing[3].

In addition to conventional missiles, bite tactics, and ramming attack, it showed new abilities in Inazuman Flash such as Reverse Jet Screw (逆転ジェットスクリュー Gyakuten Jetto Sukuryū?) that bends the rotor part at a right angle and repels enemy attacks (episode 2), underwater diving by transforming into diving mode Raijingo Diving (ライジンゴー潜水 Raijingō Sensui?) (episodes 2, 8), underground sneaking with a drill out of the mouth Drill Raijingo (ドリルライジンゴー Doriru Raijingō?) (episode 3), and others.
