You're kidding. THAT'S why such a venerable show was cancelled?
Then again, looking at the current lineup on the CN...

Nah, the jet came with three standard...unless you're referring to SUB-ORBITAL MODE!?!?!? (For those who never saw the episode, an armor shroud encased the canopy and the three main engines shut down, with four smaller rocket engines popping out of the top and bottom of the jet on pylons).

The Turbokat's been blown up a couple of times (noteably in the AU episode). In the one you reference, where Dark Kat and Dr. Viper try (and fail) to work together to eliminate the Swat Kats, you see the jet dodge a couple missiles flying into the island, then it gets hit dead on and is completely destoyed. A few minutes later, you see an amphibious tank with T-Bone and Razor inside, and T-Bone laments the loss of the jet. (It appeared as though one of them was flying the plane by remote control, so it would be destroyed and lull Dark Kat and Viper into a false sense of security.) The plane can't actually transform into anything else, although it would appear to be waterproofed to some degree (check the episode where Dr. Viper floods the city with mutagenic ooze).
Well f*** my a**...IT'S A DECEPTACON!!!

My favorite episode of the show was the one that had the small silver orb robot. It got loose and began upgrading itself with other technology until it became this massive four legged centauresque machine armed with a laser that could destroy islands. Sweet.

The whole show was just great. A few weeks ago I was at my friends house, he has one of those Tivo-type deals and we watched an episode with boomerang on-demand. It was so cool to relive the good ol days.

Ooooh, I have some fond memories of that show. That's from back in the days of the Super Adventure Block, before we had Toonami. Good ol' G-Force; what first got me into anime.

Anyone ever played the SNES game? It's not nearly as radical as the show, but hey, it's better than Bubsy.
