“There's no escape from these wings. Lock on... Missile Salvo!”
— In-game quote

Jet Mode is one of theRobobot Armor modes. The Jet Mode transformsKirby's mech into a free-flying jet with loads of missiles and gatling ammunition. When acquiring this mode, the armor flies off into a separate area of the stage and is controlled in a side-scrolling shooter style, moving automatically to the right. When this concludes, the armor crashes, and is not usable again. Due to its use in stages of the game, it cannot be discarded.

Trivia[edit]

  • According to a Robobot Armor pop quiz, the Jet Mode cannot be used to fly back toDream Land[1]. This is likely because it tends to crash after a short time in use.
