The Prototype is a vehicle that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a biplane created by Miles "Tails" Prower and powered by a Chaos Emerald during a test flight run. It later became the Tornado 2.
History[]
Prior the events of the game, the prototype model was the latest aircraft built by Tails.[1] After discovering a Chaos Emerald, Tails decided to use it as the power source for the prototype's propulsion system during a test run.[2][3] However, the Chaos Emerald proved to not be fully compatible with the prototype model.[4] As such, Tails lost control of the prototype model and crashed in Emerald Coast. Tails later finished the prototype after discovering another Chaos Emerald in Sand Hill, and he nicknamed the plane the "Tornado 2".[5][6]
