While i'm highly partial to his torque rifle, AirRaid seems a little too wreckless to beat either Decepticon mentioned in the air. When he tries to get in close either Blitzwing just turns tank from above or grabs him in mech form as he can switch alts three times as fast; conversly Ramjet would just spear the Aerialbot should he streaking into his cluster. Hand to hand either Decepticon would dominate as well.
Sideswipe could hold his own against either Decepticon contender but given his lower endurance may have the same flaw as the Aerialbot. With limited flight and even more limited firepower, his only option is to use underhanded tactics and melee combat. Since he's not his brother, I don't see him getting past the triple changer. Ramjet handles pain a little too well for Sideswipe to rashly trade hits with the conehead either.
Given the comrodery of the decepticons sharing atleast one alt mode, I'ld have to default to them working better together too.
I'ld give Blitzwing and Ramjet the win 4 out of 5 matches.
