The Tornado was originally Sonic's bi-plane in which he traveled to Westside Island to search for the Chaos Emeralds. Later on in the series, it became Tails' airplane. By Sonic Adventure, there were several versions and remodels of the plane.

The original red plane appeared in Sonic 2, but reappeared in Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic Triple Trouble, Sonic Advance and Sonic Adventure. Over the course of this time, it has gone over major revisions, starting out as a cartoonish bi-plane, then getting a jet booster added to the bottom by the end of its first appearence in Sonic 2. In Sonic Adventure it was redesigned into a more realistic plane with guns and missile launchers but the booster was built into its bottom. By Sonic Unleashed, it was again redesigned into a cartoony futuristic looking plane with a jet mode transformation similar to the Tornado II.

During Sonic Adventure, a new blue plane made by Tails called the Tornado II appeared. It's plane mode is similar to the Sonic Adventure redesign of the original but is powered by a Chaos Emerald and is much faster than the original. It has the additional ability to transform into a jet mode. This plane cameoed in Team Sonic's opening in Sonic Heroes.

Sonic Adventure 2 introduced another new plane by Tails called the Tornado III. This new version only flies in a jet setting, but has the additional ability to transform into the Cyclone and an automobile. This version later reappears in Shadow the Hedgehog (game).

In Sonic Unleashed, Sonic and Tails use the Tornado to fight off swarms of enemies in Tornado Defense. This is done via QTE's, and also has a boss fight, the Egg Cauldron.
