'' was a Hanna-Barbera American Animated Television Series created by Christian Tremblay and Yvon Tremblay . The show ran in Syndication from 1993 to 1995 , when it was canceled. There were a total of twenty-three finished Episodes and a special episode, that features a report on the SWAT Kats and of all their missions and gadgets. There were also three unfinished episodes and seven unused premises.
The show was based in the fictional metropolis of Megakat City, which is populated entirely by Anthropomorphic felines, known as "kats".
Chance " T-Bone " Furlong and Jake "Razor" Clawson were members of Megakat City 's SWAT team, known as the Enforcers . While in pursuit of Dark Kat , one of the main Arch-villain s of the series, the two rebelled against Enforcer Commander Feral 's orders to fall back and leave Dark Kat to him. When they objected, citing their already-acquired target lock, Commander Feral used his jet to slap their wing, sending Chance and Jake's jet crashing into Enforcer headquarters and allowing Dark Kat to get away. In his anger, Feral caused Chance and Jake to be discharged from the flight team and reassigned to work at a salvage yard, also owned by Feral, to pay for the damage to Enforcers HQ. Using discarded military parts and weapons from the salvage yard, they built a Three-engine Jet Fighter called the '' Turbokat '' (resembling several different aircraft, most notably an F-14 ), along with a handful of other vehicles (including a motorcycle built into the jet and a Militarized Jeep ) and patrol Megakat City as the ''SWAT Kats'', defending it against any kind of menace that is too dangerous for the Enforcers to handle themselves (like the Criminal Mastermind Dark Kat , the undead Sorcerer Pastmaster , the Mutant Evil Genius Doctor Viper and the Robotic Gangsters the Metallikats ). T-Bone and Razor kept their identities secret from everyone, even from the deputy Mayor Callie Briggs (who was, ironically, a character more important than the mayor himself, who was portrayed as a Naïve man). Their methods did not endear them to Commander Feral , and the series often had the three clash, much as in '' A-Team '' episodes.
