Laser Flapper

The Laser Flapper (レーザーフラッパー) is a recurring enemy in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. They are a mass-produced type of Flapper-Badnik created by Dr. Eggman.

Appearance
The Laser Flappers look very similar to the Flapper, possessing the round torso, black undercarriage, dome-shaped head, that the   airplane-like wings instead of arms, two turbines on their backs, and have flight visors instead of eyes. However, they have a laser generator under their black undercarriage.

Sonic Heroes
Laser Flappers make their debut in Sonic Heroes, appearing in various levels of the game. The easiest way to destroy them is by using Thunder Shoot to knock them out of the sky, leaving them open to any attack. If Thunder Shoot is leveled up to Level 2, then it may be enough to destroy a Laser Flapper in one shot. However, the Teams should be wary of the lasers they emit.

Sonic Rush
Laser Flappers reappear in Sonic Rush, where they are blue in color similar to Gun Flappers. They can be easily destroyed by a Spin Jump or Axel Jump.
