Battle Android Troopers (B.A.T.) are mass-produced androids used to fill out Cobra's ranks. Cheap and easily replaced, B.A.T.s are pretty popular among the higher-ups since they never question orders or demand pay or annoying stuff like that. On the other hand, they're pretty dumb, so they're usually just used to wear G.I. Joe down before actually skilled troops are sent in.
