Godzilla Island

Medical Jet Jaguar, one of three different Jet Jaguars on Godzilla Island (the others being a completely silver Jet Jaguar and a Fire Fighter Jet Jaguar) was a giant machine used by G-Guard on the island to see to the monsters and keep them healthy. Operated by one pilot, the robot helped injured monsters and also saw each monster for a regular checkup, ensuring each was healthy. Medical Jet Jaguar had no real weapons to speak of, but had a host of materials needed for its job, including a giant stethoscope and hypodermic needle. The machine was a favorite vehicle for Beisuke Jinguji's daughter, Misato Jinguji, during her time on the Island.

Trivia

• While Godzilla Island features multiple Jet Jaguar units, the only time that multiple Jet Jaguars are seen together occurs in episode 125, where Medical Jet Jaguar is seen standing next to Fire Fighter Jet Jaguar.
• Medical Jet Jaguar has received multiple figures, with the first not being made until a decade after Godzilla Island ceased airing. The first was part of Bandai's Movie Monster Series which was sold exclusively through the magazine Hyper Hobby in 2007, while two others were released by Mondo in 2022, and Super7 in 2023.
• In a 2024 podcast interview, author Johnny Parker II revealed that he had wanted to include Medical Jet Jaguar in Godzilla Rivals: Mothra Vs. M.O.G.U.E.R.A. as a piloted mecha. The concept, however, was turned down by Toho, resulting in the inclusion of the traditional Jet Jaguar instead.
