Airstrike, formerly known as Crimson Dynamo, is a member of the Russian CommonWealth's official super-team, The People's Protectorate. He encountered Alpha Flight during the Waterwind Incident. NOTE: While it is true that it was the Crimson Dynamo who appeared during the WaterWind Incident, it was later restructures so that the People's Protectorate took that name after Bukharin became Airstrike.

Airstrike uses an advanced suit of cybernetic armor on par with Iron Man's.
