Thunderbird 1

Bold and brave Scott Tracy is the unofficial leader of International Rescue. His brothers complain that he’s bossy, but he’s decisive when under extreme pressure. He pilots  Thunderbird 1 – a fast-response aircraft with a top speed of 15,000 MPH. The rocket can fly up to 150,000 feet and it’s equipped with sonarradar and a M.I.D.A.S. Anti-Detection System.

Thunderbird 2

International Rescue’s transporterThunderbird 2 is manned by Virgil Tracy and it can hold loads of up to 100 tonnes. It has 6 interchangeable pods to carry equipment and other rescue vehicles (like Thunderbird 4).

Thunderbird 3

 Astronaut Alan Tracy is a naturally gifted pilot, who loves zooming through space in Thunderbird 3. This space rocket has a particle accelerator that allows it to reach incredible speeds. It also has useful equipment including grappling arms and advanced heat and radiation shielding.

Thunderbird 4

Fun-loving and outgoing, Gordon Tracy is always playing practical jokes, but the aquanaut is reliable when it counts on daring rescue missions.Gordon is in charge of the Thunderbird 4 submarine, which is called upon for underwater search and rescue missions. It travels underwater at 160 knots and has 4D sonar array as well as adaptive utility arms.

Who is The Mechanic?

International Rescue’s old foe The Mechanic came up against rival Brains and proved himself to be a capable and innovative engineer. Currently imprisoned for his crimes, what will be his next move and will he remain in prison or find a way to break out?
