Airraptor is the name of a fictional character in the various Transformers universes.
Beast Machines
A pinpointing perfectionist, Airraptor is the most meticulous member of the Dinobot team. His attention to detail and eagle eye precision is a result of his former work as an interplanetary surveyor and navigator aboard the Axalon. Incredibly fast, capable of soaring up to 250 mph. Characteristically dive-bombs or strafes a Vehicon detachment, usually flying past his target before his ammunition makes impact. Though extremely dexterous, Airraptor's fragile wings are vulnerable to enemy firepower. Packs a quick-deploying energy destabilizer pistol.
Although the Dinobots' intro states that the Dinobots received their beast modes through the slicing of Dinobot's DNA, it is likely that the Oracle also used the fossil chamber (seen in the Beast Machine series) to utilize archaeopteryx DNA.

In "Departure" the Wreckers, Mutants and Dinobots arrive on Cybertron and are sent on missions by the Oracle.
In "Betrayal" the Dinobots are attacked by the Dweller.
When shown later, the Dinobots were missing several member, including Airraptor. It is presumed that the missing members were victims of the Dweller. In a flashback in "The Wreckers, Finale Part 1" T-Wrecks recalls how Airraptor was trapped in one of the Dweller's nets and ripped apart.
